Welcome to the Git repository of the XSCE project. XSCE is a community-based project developed and supported by volunteers from around the world. It provides communication, networking, content, and maintenance to schools and classrooms. In everyday usage the school server provides services which extend capabilities of the connected laptops while being transparent to the user. These services include:
- Classroom connectivity – Similar to what you would find in an advanced home router.
- Internet gateway – If available, an internet connection is made available to laptops.
- Content – Tools to make instructional media available to their schools and classrooms.
- Maintenance – Tools to keep laptop updated and running smoothly.
All of our server code resides in this repository. We are using ansible as the underlying technology to install, deploy, configure and manage the various server components.
Please see the INSTALL file from the docs folder for instructions to install the server on supported software and hardware platforms.
If you want to explore and get dirty with the code, please read the HACKING file. You would probably want to go through the ansible documentation before diving into the playbooks. Documentation for creating plugins for the server is under construction.
See the XSCE wiki for more information about the project.
