🌄 Ayllu

Ayllu is a hyper performant & hackable code forge optimized for single instance deployments. It leverages the distributed nature of Git with a variety of standards based integrations.

Ayllu might fit the following use cases well:

• A drop-in replacement for gitweb allowing you to browse your repositories locally.
• Self-hosted personal project pages with lots of customizability.
• Small to medium sized community projects.

The name Ayllu /ˈajʎu/, eye-joo is the Quechua word for the traditional form of a community in the Andes region of South America, particularly in Bolivia and Peru.

Please note that this is still a work in progress and the project’s canonical home is at ayllu-forge.org. To facilitate collaboration we have mirrors available at codeberg and sourcehut. Please feel free to use which ever platform you prefer, eventually we will import both platforms into Ayllu.
