-* [**SPDX**](https://spdx.org) is the rock upon which REUSE is built. SPDX defines a standardized way to share copyright and licensing information between projects and people. Read more in [our FAQ](/faq/#what-is-spdx).
-* [**ClearlyDefined**](https://clearlydefined.io) collects and displays meta and security information about a large number of projects distributed on different package registries. It also motivates developers and curators to extend data about a project's licensing and copyright situation. REUSE in comparison concentrates on fixing the problem at the file level for individual projects, which in turn will ease ClearlyDefined's efforts.
-* [**OpenChain**](https://www.openchainproject.org) focuses on making Free Software license compliance more transparent, predictable, and understandable for participants in the software supply chain. OpenChain recommends REUSE as one component to increase clarity of the licensing and copyright situation, but has higher requirements to achieve full conformance.
-* [**FOSSology**](https://www.fossology.org) is a toolkit for Free Software compliance, stores information in a database, and includes license, copyright and export scanners. It is more complex than REUSE and its helper tool and rather optimized for compliance officers and lawyers. REUSE instead intends to have all licensing and copyright information stored in or next to the source files to safeguard this information when reused elsewhere.
-* [**ORT**](https://oss-review-toolkit.org/), the OSS Review Toolkit, is a set of tools that complement existing compliance projects. Its scanner tool runs the license scanner of your choice on the source code of projects and their transitive dependencies. With these being REUSE compliant, it will be much easier for ORT to correctly determine the licenses of all files used in the project.

 ## Example repositories {#repos}
 
 What does a REUSE-compliant project look like? The following repositories are basic, but each of them is REUSE-compliant. We make them available to demonstrate how REUSE works in practice.
 
-- [reuse-example](https://git.fsfe.org/reuse/example) - a REUSE compliant repository showing a few methods to add copyright and licensing information. Includes a non-compliant branch for testing. This project is the basis for [our tutorial](/tutorial).
-- [reuse-tool](https://git.fsfe.org/reuse/tool) - the helper tool itself is compliant, just like [all other REUSE repositories](https://git.fsfe.org/reuse/).
-
-Consider registering your project with the [REUSE API](#api) to include a dynamic compliance badge.
+- [reuse-tutorial-example](https://codeberg.org/fsfe/reuse-tutorial-example) - a
+  REUSE-compliant repository that matches the example in [the tutorial]({{<
+  relref "tutorial.md" >}}). Includes a non-compliant branch for testing.

 ## API {#api}
 
-The [REUSE API](https://api.reuse.software) helps you to continuously check and display compliance with the REUSE guidelines. You can include a badge indicating the live status in your README file, and parse the output using the generated JSON file.

-The API is the perfect tool for everyone who wants to show that their repository follows best practices in providing licensing and copyright information. It allows third-party services to integrate the live REUSE status, and offers a simple alternative for people who do not want to install the [REUSE helper tool](#tool) for a first quick check.

-As everything else in REUSE, the API is [publicly available](https://git.fsfe.org/reuse/api) under Free Software licenses.
