README excerpt
# openstreetmap-website
This is `openstreetmap-website`, the Ruby on Rails
application that powers the OpenStreetMap website and API.
This repository consists of:
* The web site, including user accounts, diary entries, user-to-user messaging.
* The XML- and JSON-based editing API.
* The Browse pages - a web front-end to the OpenStreetMap data.
* The GPX uploads, browsing and API.
A fully-functional `openstreetmap-website` installation depends on other services, including map tile
servers and geocoding services, that are provided by other software. The default installation
uses publicly-available services to help with development and testing.
