Plume is a federated blogging platform that aims to make it easier for anybody to start blogging. Users can host their own blog or use a public instance. It users ActivityPub for federation to improve discovery so your blog can be followed by any user of Plume/Pleroma/Mastodon/any other ActivityPub platform or RSS.

The project is written in Rust using the Rocket framework. Check out a public instance to get a feel for the platform or jump onto the issue tracker if you want to help.

Plume-org / Plume

Federated blogging application, thanks to ActivityPub

Plume Build Status

Federated blogging engine, based on ActivityPub. It uses the Rocket framework, and Diesel to interact with the database.

Demo instance

It is not yet ready for production use, but we have all the basic features (account management, blogs, articles, comments, etc) and a basic federation.

Feel free to join our Matrix room: #plume:disroot.org to discuss about the project!

If you are interested in coding, check out the development guide. You can also help by reporting issues, suggesting features, or writing documentation for instance.

If you would like to help by translating Plume, we also have a guide for you!
