Reepo · the open workshop of Flaptown Advancements
Software belongs in everyone's hands.
Every Flaptown program keeps its source here, out in the open. Read how it works, take it home, or make your own edition. No command line required, and nothing hidden from people who want one.

Connecting to Flaptown…
Source is shown as text. Up to 256 files and 2 MiB per version; 32 MiB across your account. Download it to run locally after reviewing it.
Every saved version stays exactly as it was; nothing is rewritten. Open an earlier one to read it, or save it again to restore it. The fingerprint (SHA-256 of the version's files) is how you know two copies are the same.
Ideas & fixes
Suggested changes
Share a saved edition with its original maker for review. Your edition stays private; only its proposed files are shared with the original owner. Accepted files become part of that project under its existing license.
New to all this? Six words, in plain English
Source — the recipe
Programs are written as ordinary text files, in languages made for describing steps precisely. A browser or a phone reads that text and follows it. The source is that text. Reading it is like reading a recipe: you don't need to cook to follow along.
Project (people say repo) — the folder
All the files that make one program, kept together, with their history. "Repo" is short for repository, which is just a fancy word for a place where things are kept.
Version (people say commit) — a saved moment
Each time the maker saves, the whole project is kept exactly as it was, with a note saying what changed. You can open any old version and read it. Nothing gets quietly rewritten.
License — the rules for sharing
A short legal promise about what you're allowed to do with the code. Everything here uses an open-source license, which means you may read it, use it and change it. Some ask you to share your changes the same way.
Edition (people say fork) — your own copy
Make your own edition and you get a private copy you can change freely. The original isn't touched. If you make something better, you can suggest your changes back to the maker.
Fingerprint (people say hash) — proof it's the same
A long string of letters and numbers worked out from the files themselves. Change a single letter anywhere and the fingerprint changes completely. If two fingerprints match, the files are the same.
Start a tour from any project with a Tour tab. They're short, and every stop shows the real code next to an explanation.

| fork | edition (private until published; origin recorded) |
| pull request | suggested changes (frozen snapshot, per-file diff, accept or decline) |
| issue | idea & fix |
| clone | download zip (includes a provenance file) |
| permalink | link to lines (click a line number; shift-click for a range) |
What we promise
- Your code stays under the license you choose. We don't relicense it or sell it.
- No ads, no tracking pixels, no third-party scripts on this page. Its Content-Security-Policy allows only this site and the account service.
- Versions are append-only. Nothing is force-pushed; history isn't rewritten.
- Private stays private until you publish. Unpublishing stops future reads.
- Everything is downloadable, and your account can be exported or deleted.
What we don't do yet
- No git transport: no
git cloneorgit push. Download the zip; we'd rather say so than pretend. - No CI or builds run here. Text files only (no binaries), up to 256 files and 2 MiB per version.
