Forgejo (pronounced /forˈd͡ʒe.jo/, inspired by the Esperanto word for "forge") is a community-driven, open-source platform for hosting Git repositories. Initially a soft fork of Gitea, it evolved into a hard fork in early 2024, diverging to prioritize transparency, decentralization, and user control.

Key features include:​

  • Git Repository Hosting: Manage and host Git repositories with a user-friendly interface.​

  • Issue Tracking & Pull Requests: Collaborate effectively using integrated issue tracking and pull request systems.​

  • CI/CD with Forgejo Actions: Automate workflows using Forgejo Actions, supporting continuous integration and deployment.

  • ustomization & Theming: Tailor the platform's appearance and functionality to fit specific needs.​

  • Privacy & Security: Emphasizes user privacy with features like two-factor authentication and optional telemetry.
