FOSSLight Hub is an open-source compliance and security platform that manages open source software (OSS) inventories, licenses, vulnerabilities, and compliance workflows. It provides a web interface for OSS identification, license management, vulnerability tracking, self-check audits, SBOM generation (SPDX, CycloneDX), and supply chain management. The system is architected as a Spring Boot backend with MyBatis persistence, JWT-based authentication, and REST APIs (v2 and lite). It features a dual frontend: a legacy server-rendered UI using jqGrid and Thymeleaf, and a modern Next.js 'lite' client built with React, Tailwind CSS, and Recoil. Key entry points include API controllers (e.g., LiteOssController, ApiOssV2Controller), service layer components, and scheduled tasks for NVD/OSV vulnerability synchronization. External dependencies include MariaDB, a mail server, external license APIs (GitHub, ClearlyDefined), NVD/OSV vulnerability feeds, and the FOSSLight Scanner. The platform is actively developed with continuous releases and a growing feature set, though it carries some technical debt from legacy frontend libraries and enterprise-specific hardcoding.
