What is the tech stack for and mastodon?

I am new to programming. Still learning

But very curious.

@Full_marx Ruby is the only part i recall off hand, Keep in mind QOTO uses a copy of mastodon which is forked and has code changes, The source is on the QOTO git git.qoto.org

@freemo @Full_marx
Ruby on Rails, Redis (with Sidekiq gem), Elasticsearch for full text searching if enabled, with Postgresql for the db

@Full_marx
Oh, and ActivityPub is a protocol, meaning it's not a specific technology but a specification that other technologies can implement in part, whole, or extension. Check out activitypub.rocks/

Aaaaaaaahhhhhhh.

I was hoping it was made off Node.js + Mongodb

Node is gonna remain a niche tech for a long time I suppose.

Thanks. Love you all!!
