TOOLS
[[!img Error: Image::Magick is not installed]]
ilot leverages open-source platforms to offer a set of online tools for our members. At the center of our infrastructure is [[Nextcloud|https://nextcloud.com], an opensource collaboration and file management platform analogous to Google Drive. Open-source platforms are technologies that allow anyone to deploy their own version - or instance - and build around it. In our case, we administer our own Nextcloud and have integrated a set of tools around it to augment it.

Our Auxillary Services
The following platforms are more there as a support role. They allow better management of the other platforms, and they are here to give you an overview of our infrastructure.
- Auth, an instance of Authentik, is our unified authenticaton system. It is the service that allows a membre to access all of our platforms using the same account. From this space, you can also see all of the different spaces that you have access to. It is also through Auth that you can change account settings, like your password or email.
- Support, an instance of Freescout, is our technical support platform where you can find guides on how to use ilot and where you can open support tickets. You can go here for more details on how to ask for help.
- Status, an instance of Uptime-Kuma, allows us to keep track of the state of the network. If something goes down, Status will alert the technical working group. If you have issues connecting to any of our platforms, you can go there to see the state of the network.
- Notif, an instance of listmonk, allows the working groups to easily communicate with the rest of the membership in case of announcements or technical issues.
- Forge, an instance of Forgejo, is a forge based on git that is the main developpment space for ilot. It is used to track our bugs, compile our platforms and power our website.
- Wiki, an instance of Wiki.JS, is a wiki engine that acts as a knowledge base for the community and for the membership. Since the membership is engaged with various causes, we can expect this space to eventually become a resource for those whose values matches ours.
