Ok, I think I have listed all the Apple applications on my machine, along with a few 3rd party software that I also have (not yet Microsoft and I don't have Adobe CC, only CS5 and on a different machine).
https://github.com/AppleScript-Library-Project/application-listing
What I'd like to do in parallel is to give pointers to references that target a specific application. For ex, the macautomation site has good reference to scripting Apple software so links to those pages should go under each specific application.
