GForge® Community Edition

GForge Community Edition is a lighter version of GForge Advanced Server, with a few more features than the GForge 4.x system, and with the cleaned up interface and easy installation of the AS platform.

GForge Community Edition has an intuitive interface that ties together a huge toolset, from Source Code Management (SCM) to extremely customizable Trackers, Task Managers, Document Managers, Forums. All of these are controlled by a centralized permission system and maintained automatically by the system.

Getting Started

Don't get overwhelmed by the huge toolset. Get started by registering and confirming your user account. Then, if needed, register your own project. Once your project is approved, simply visit the project and click on the 'Admin' tab.

• Edit your trackers, or create new trackers, fields, and values in your fields
