# "The Rails Port"
|
|
|
|
[](https://travis-ci.org/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website)
|
|
|
|
This is The Rails Port, the [Ruby on Rails](http://rubyonrails.org/)
|
|
application that powers the [OpenStreetMap](http://www.openstreetmap.org) website and API.
|
|
The software is also known as "openstreetmap-website".
|
|
|
|
This repository consists of:
|
|
|
|
* The web site, including user accounts, diary entries, user-to-user messaging
|
|
* The XML-based editing [API](http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/API_v0.6)
|
|
* The integrated versions of the [Potlatch](http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Potlatch_1), [Potlatch 2](http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Potlatch_2) and [iD](http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/ID) editors
|
|
* The Browse pages - a web front-end to the OpenStreetMap data
|
|
* The GPX uploads, browsing and API.
|
|
|
|
A fully-functional Rails Port installation depends on other services, including map tile
|
|
servers and geocoding services, that are provided by other software. The default installation
|
|
uses publicly-available services to help with development and testing.
