Cardpeek
About
Cardpeek is a free and open-source tool originating from France, designed for Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X. It specializes in reading the contents of ISO7816 smart cards, including EMV cards, and features a GTK GUI that presents card data in a tree view. The tool is highly extensible through a LUA scripting language and supports features like OpenPGP, with community involvement for suggesting and voting on new functionalities. Its open-source nature is further evidenced by its presence on GitHub (https://github.com/L1L1/cardpeek).
