Shareabouts is a simple web app for crowdsourced mapping. We're in very early stages right now, so expect many rough edges.
Shareabouts is intended for simple mapping applications. For example, you could use it to collect public input on suitable locations for stations in a city-wide bike share.
The project is open source, and we welcome your involvement.
Requirements and a setup guide are located at doc/README_FOR_APP.
In the spirit of free software, everyone is encouraged to help improve this project.
