CodingTeam is a free and easy to use forge designed for you. Your projects need simplicity and intuitivity!
A little bit of history. The project is born in march 2005 but the first public version (0.42) was released in june 2007. The first motivation of this project was to make a good forge for French-speaking users. Now, developers focus on accessibility and easy-to-use (this forge is recognized by many people as one of the only forge to have understandable and intuitive HCI). CodingTeam is available in many languages and the "lightweight but powerful" philosophy now benefits to everybody!
CodingTeam integrates a lot of XMPP features. You'll get presence and notifications for the users and MUC for projects. Projects can also use a forum, a news system or a complete documentation system (based on the wiki model). You can also authentifiate users via the XEP-0070.
CodingTeam follows the OpenForge specification that allows forge to share datas. This is used by a forge to perform external search, or showing informations about a project or an user registered on another forge.
With CodingTeam, you get Subversion or Mercurial repositories for each projects, to help you share your code and provide a real teamwork for your project. In the future, others VCS will be supported.
You also get a full bug tracking system. Never forget an issue or a bug, users report their bugs and you class them before you upload a file with the fix. A roadmap is also generated with bug data.
CodingTeam implements a gettext based online translation system. Just upload your .pot and your users will start to translate your software in their own languages. After that, you just need to export the .po and it's done!
Projects have a lot of RSS/ATOM feed that allows you to reach informations about the whole project or about one part of the project (news, downloads, commits…). Use the Timeline to get informations about the project's activity!
Statistics are a funny way to see if a project is still alive or to get informations about project involving, that's why CodingTeam can generate charts. And because we love standards, we choose SVG.
CodingTeam provides files download capability and screenshots hosting for projects. You can search or browse projects with multiple criterias, and filter them by downloads number, popularity…
