Last Revised: July 26, 2015

This README provides a quick overview of the tools used by Mushroom Observer (MO) and an overview of the other READMEs that accompany this file. See http://mushroomobserver.org/observer/intro for an introduction to the website itself.

Source code control: The source code for MO is currently managed using git and is hosted on github. The URL for the MO source repository is https://github.com/MushroomObserver/mushroom-observer.

To get started developing we recommend that you head over to https://github.com/MushroomObserver/developer-startup which provides instructions for getting a development environment setup on Mac, Linux and Windows machines.

The following files should provide useful information for working with the Mushroom Observer code base. Note that we are not great at keeping these up to date, so be sure to take them with a grain of salt proportional to the Last Revised date.

README_CODE: Provides a snapshot of the major components of Mushroom Observer.

README_DEVELOPMENT_INSTALL: Describes the steps needed for a developer to get the code running locally. Though we recommend following the process outlined at https://github.com/MushroomObserver/developer-startup. You are encouraged to update this document with your own experience.

README_PRODUCTION_INSTALL: Describes the steps needed to setup our production environment.

README_STANDARDS: The closest we have to coding standards. Currently this is very brief.

README_TRANSLATIONS: Details needed for translators to provide support in for the site in a new language.
