# Slack Coder's SlackBuilds
A collection of [slack build scripts](https://slackbuilds.org/howto/) to build
-Slackware packages from application source code. A notable policy difference
-here is to use the application's official source code location.
-
-Not all are my own, are copied from elsewhere with only the download location
-and version updated. This will be clear from the copyright notice or build tag
-in the SlackBuild script.
+Slackware packages from application source code.

+## Package tags
+
+It is standard for third party slackware packages to be built with a 'tag'
+appended to their package name. It helps signal to origin of the package but
+there is no hard rule. Check
+[linuxquestions](https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/what-are-slackware-package-tags-4175735243/)
+for further discussion.
+
+These packages are tagged with '_slackcoder'.
