Suggestions

May I suggest an application to be added?

Absolutely. The only prerequisite is that it's popular (i.e. used on thousands of websites).

What information do you need?

  • Name of the application
  • Type of application (CMS, framework etc.)
  • URL of the applications website
  • A square image of the application's logo, at least 16x16 pixels (preferably a .ico file)
  • Some suggestions on how to detect the application (preferably a regular expression, see below)
  • Example websites that use the application

How does Wappalyzer detect applications?

Wappalyzer uses a long list of regular expressions to find fingerprint code in:

  • HTML (e.g. meta tags, classes, scripts)
  • URLs (e.g. example.wordpress.com)
  • HTTP response headers (e.g. the value of "X-Powered-By" or "Set-Cookie")
  • Global JavaScript environment variables (e.g. "jQuery")

Note that the matching code has the be present on each page. Wappalyzer doesn't request URLs.

Can I provide a patch?

Yes please! You can find the source code on Github (relevant file here). Pull requests are much appreciated.
