Third-party tools
There are a number of useful player-made tools available to the capsuleer. While not exhaustive, this article does cover the major, currently developed, widely used third party tools for EVE players, compiled from original research and other sources[1][2][3].
Inclusion in this list is not an endorsement of a tool by EVE University, nor is omission a condemnation.
