Introduction to Federation of Forges
A federation of forges can provide a more decentralized approach to open source development.
Benefits of Federation
One of the benefits of a federation of forges is the ability to have more control over your own data.
I’d like to preface I’m pretty active in atprotocol ecosystem, so my experience is more than likely a bit more biased, but thought I’d share some of my thoughts as a big fan of tangled.
This approach can also provide more flexibility and autonomy for developers.
Examples of Federation of Forges
Tangled and Gitworkshop are two examples of GitHub alternatives that are part of a federation of forges.
A federation doesn’t mean the forges talk to each other. It only means there’s more than one, and data flows between them.
These platforms provide a more decentralized approach to open source development.
Conclusion
In conclusion, a federation of forges is an exciting development in the world of open source.
