Decidim it’s a participatory democracy platform where any organization can make decisions. There are Spaces (Participatory Processes, Assemblies, Consultations and Initiatives), and Components (like Proposals, Meetings, Surveys, Results)
At the technical level is made on Ruby on Rails. It’s a gem with multiple engines. The main idea is to have a ecosystem of modules allowing it to grow and handle the needs of any installation. It’s all open source with an open development process (we discuss every issue on GitHub, use Crowdin for translations, Gitter for chat, documentation made with Antora). GitHub: https://github.com/decidim/decidim https://github.com/decidim/decidim
It’s a project started by Barcelona (Spain) City Hall, but at the moment it’s being used by more that 40 installations.
Some installations:
* http://decidim.barcelona/ http://decidim.barcelona/ - the first installation, used by Barcelona.
* https://meta.decidim.org/ https://meta.decidim.org/ - our own instance to discuss and make decisions about the software
* https://participation.lillemetropole.fr/ https://participation.lillemetropole.fr/ - metropolitan area of Lille (France)
* https://participa.somenergia.coop/ https://participa.somenergia.coop/ - Som Energia, a spanish electric cooperative
