## Purpose
The goal of this project is to make the easiest, fastest, and most
painless way of setting up a self-hosted Git service.
As Gitea is written in Go, it works across **all** the platforms and
architectures that are supported by Go, including Linux, macOS, and
Windows on x86, amd64, ARM and PowerPC architectures.
This project has been
[forked](https://blog.gitea.com/welcome-to-gitea/) from
[Gogs](https://gogs.io) since November of 2016, but a lot has changed.
For online demonstrations, you can visit [demo.gitea.com](https://demo.gitea.com).
For accessing free Gitea service (with a limited number of repositories), you can visit [gitea.com](https://gitea.com/user/login).
To quickly deploy your own dedicated Gitea instance on Gitea Cloud, you can start a free trial at [cloud.gitea.com](https://cloud.gitea.com).
## Building
From the root of the source tree, run:
TAGS="bindata" make build
or if SQLite support is required:
TAGS="bindata sqlite sqlite_unlock_notify" make build
The `build` target is split into two sub-targets:
- `make backend` which requires [Go Stable](https://go.dev/dl/), the required version is defined in [go.mod](/go.mod).
- `make frontend` which requires [Node.js LTS](https://nodejs.org/en/download/) or greater.
Internet connectivity is required to download the go and npm modules. When building from the official source tarballs which include pre-built frontend files, the `frontend` target will not be triggered, making it possible to build without Node.js.
More info: https://docs.gitea.com/installation/install-from-source
## Using
./gitea web
> [!NOTE]
> If you're interested in using our APIs, we have experimental support with [documentation](https://docs.gitea.com/api).
## Contributing
Expected workflow is: Fork -> Patch -> Push -> Pull Request
> [!NOTE]
>
> 1. **YOU MUST READ THE [CONTRIBUTORS GUIDE](CONTRIBUTING.md) BEFORE STARTING TO WORK ON A PULL REQUEST.**
> 2. If you have found a vulnerability in the project, please write privately to **security@gitea.io**. Thanks!
## Translating
Translations are done through Crowdin. If you want to translate to a new language ask one of the managers in the Crowdin project to add a new language there.
You can also just create an issue for adding a language or ask on discord on the #translation channel. If you need context or find some translation issues, you can leave a comment on the string or ask on Discord. For general translation questions there is a section in the docs. Currently a bit empty but we hope to fill it as questions pop up.

## Further information
For more information and instructions about how to install Gitea, please look at our [documentation](https://docs.gitea.com/).
If you have questions that are not covered by the documentation, you can get in contact with us on our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/Gitea) or create a post in the [discourse forum](https://forum.gitea.com/).
We maintain a list of Gitea-related projects at [gitea/awesome-gitea](https://gitea.com/gitea/awesome-gitea).
The official Gitea CLI is developed at [gitea/tea](https://gitea.com/gitea/tea).
