Metamaps

Build Status Code Climate

What is Metamaps?

Metamaps is a free and open-source technology for changemakers, innovators, educators and students. It enables individuals and communities to build and visualize their shared knowledge and unlock their collective intelligence.

You can find a version of this software running at metamaps.cc, where the technology is being tested in an open beta.

Metamaps is developed and maintained by a distributed, nomadic community comprised of technologists, artists and storytellers. You can get in touch by using whichever of these channels you prefer:

How do I learn more?

Installation

If you are on Mac or Ubuntu you can use the following instructions to quickly get a local copy of metamaps up and running using a Vagrant virtualbox. Don't be intimidated, it's easy!

git clone [email protected]:metamaps/metamaps.git

Now ensure you have VirtualBox and Vagrant installed on your computer

cd metamaps
./bin/configure.sh

This will do all the setup steps to make Metamaps work with a bit of behind the scenes ninja magick.

To start servers which will run metamaps you can then run:

./bin/start

To stop them:

./bin/stop

With your webservers running, open a web browser and go to http://localhost:3000

You can sign in with the default account email: [email protected] password: toolsplusconsciousness OR create a new account at /join, and use access code qwertyui

Start mapping and programming!

We haven't set up instructions for using Vagrant on Windows, but there are instructions for a manual setup here:
