As promised, **the littleFedi source code will become publicly available in about a week**.

We will publish a snapshot of the complete source tree, together with some basic instructions to build and run it. Pre-built binaries will also be provided.

This will not yet be a proper littleFedi release. Documentation still needs work, testing needs to be expanded, and several things need to be cleaned up before we can call it that.

But the important part is that the code will finally be out there.

People will be able to read it, build it, experiment with it, start using littleFedi..

Over time, development will progressively move to the BSD Cafe Forgejo, where we will have the usual tools for issues, contributions, releases and collaborative development.

We're not quite there yet.

For now, the first step is simple: open the doors and let people get their hands on the code.

About one more week.

# Hello from littleFedi 👋

This is the official account for **littleFedi**.

littleFedi is a lightweight, efficient and Mastodon-compatible platform for the Fediverse.

The idea behind it is simple: software should adapt to the machine and the community, not the other way around.

littleFedi can run on modest hardware, but it is not designed *only* for small machines. The same approach is meant to scale with you, from a tiny personal instance to a larger community.

Our priorities are:

- **Efficiency**, without unnecessary resource usage
- **Simplicity**, both for users and administrators
- **Interoperability**, with the wider Fediverse
- **Accessibility**, including a usable no-JavaScript baseline
- **Control**, because your instance should remain yours
- **No AI features**, no magic black boxes, just predictable software and transparent algorithms

The project is still evolving, and we are deliberately taking the time to test federation, scalability and the rough edges before calling it ready.

This account will be used for releases, development updates, technical notes, demos and everything related to littleFedi.

Small footprint when you need it. Room to grow when you need that too.

Welcome to littleFedi.
