Originally developed in 2019, Outpost is a decoupled service directory built to manage service information. It is part of a wider "Outpost Platform", the goal of which is to create a network of open source applications that are simple, quick and affordable to create to meet the needs of staff, residents and communities. Outpost only does one thing, manage service information. By design it is not a content management system or a reporting tool. This means the data can be used where its needed however its needed. See more in decoupled data.

Please feel free to read through anything under the Outpost section for information about the project; past, present and future. If you are a developer there is a heading for you in the sidebar, this will give you an introduction to key concepts and links to how to setup your own outpost install. If you are not a developer and would like to know more about using outpost as a community user or an administrator please refer to the using outpost section.
Being able to easily provide access information in the right way.
Free, open source, community driven. Easily available for anyone to use or try out.
Every sprint, the Outpost team write up a short sprintnote to say what they have been up that sprint. It's our way of working in the open to keep everyone informed about progress and what we're learning as we go.
