The Standard for Public Code gives public organizations a model for building their own open source solutions to enable successful future reuse by similar public organizations in other places. It includes guidance for policy makers, city administrators, developers and vendors.

All codebases in stewardship with the Foundation for Public Code have chosen to apply the Standard to their own work (source).

Of a more technical nature is the corresponding publiccode.yml Standard

A metadata description standard for public software that is easy to use both for developers and people with less technical background in order to make the software developed by Public Administrations and Public Organisations easily discoverable.
