Mastodon is a **free, open-source social network server** based on ActivityPub where users can follow friends and discover new ones. On Mastodon, users can publish anything they want: links, pictures, text, and video. All Mastodon servers are interoperable as a federated network (users on one server can seamlessly communicate with users from another one, including non-Mastodon software that implements ActivityPub!)

## Features
|
|
|
|
<img src="/app/javascript/images/elephant_ui_working.svg?raw=true" align="right" width="30%" />
|
|
|
|
### No vendor lock-in: Fully interoperable with any conforming platform
|
|
|
|
It doesn't have to be Mastodon; whatever implements ActivityPub is part of the social network! [Learn more](https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2018/06/why-activitypub-is-the-future/)
|
|
|
|
### Real-time, chronological timeline updates
|
|
|
|
Updates of people you're following appear in real-time in the UI via WebSockets. There's a firehose view as well!
|
|
|
|
### Media attachments like images and short videos
|
|
|
|
Upload and view images and WebM/MP4 videos attached to the updates. Videos with no audio track are treated like GIFs; normal videos loop continuously!
|
|
|
|
### Safety and moderation tools
|
|
|
|
Mastodon includes private posts, locked accounts, phrase filtering, muting, blocking, and all sorts of other features, along with a reporting and moderation system. [Learn more](https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2018/07/cage-the-mastodon/)
|
|
|
|
### OAuth2 and a straightforward REST API
|
|
|
|
Mastodon acts as an OAuth2 provider, so 3rd party apps can use the REST and Streaming APIs. This results in a rich app ecosystem with a lot of choices!
|
|
|
|
## Deployment
|
|
|
|
### Tech stack
|
|
|
|
- **Ruby on Rails** powers the REST API and other web pages
|
|
- **React.js** and Redux are used for the dynamic parts of the interface
|
|
- **Node.js** powers the streaming API
|
|
|
|
### Requirements
|
|
|
|
- **PostgreSQL** 12+
|
|
- **Redis** 4+
|
|
- **Ruby** 3.1+
|
|
- **Node.js** 18+
|
|
|
|
The repository includes deployment configurations for **Docker and docker-compose** as well as specific platforms like **Heroku**, and **Scalingo**. For Helm charts, reference the [mastodon/chart repository](https://github.com/mastodon/chart). The [**standalone** installation guide](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/admin/install/) is available in the documentation.
|
|
|
|
## Development
|
|
|
|
### Vagrant
|
|
|
|
A **Vagrant** configuration is included for development purposes. To use it, complete the following steps:
|
|
|
|
- Install Vagrant and Virtualbox
|
|
- Install the `vagrant-hostsupdater` plugin: `vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostsupdater`
|
|
- Run `vagrant up`
|
|
- Run `vagrant ssh -c "cd /vagrant && bin/dev"`
|
|
- Open `http://mastodon.local` in your browser
|
|
|
|
### MacOS
|
|
|
|
To set up **MacOS** for native development, complete the following steps:
|
|
|
|
- Use a Ruby version manager to install the specified version from `.ruby-version`
|
|
- Run `bundle` to install required gems
|
|
- Run `brew install postgresql@14 redis imagemagick libidn` to install required dependencies
|
|
- Navigate to Mastodon's root directory and run `brew install nvm` then `nvm use` to use the version from `.nvmrc`
|
|
- Run `yarn` to install required packages
|
|
- Run `corepack enable && corepack prepare`
|
|
- Run `RAILS_ENV=development bundle exec rails db:setup`
|
|
- Finally, run `bin/dev` which will launch the local services via `overmind` (if installed) or `foreman`
|
|
|
|
### Docker
|
|
|
|
For production hosting and deployment with **Docker**, use the `Dockerfile` and
|
|
`docker-compose.yml` in the project root directory. To create a local
|
|
development environment with **Docker**, complete the following steps:
|
|
|
|
- Install Docker Desktop
|
|
- Run `docker compose -f .devcontainer/docker-compose.yml up -d`
|
|
- Run `docker compose -f .devcontainer/docker-compose.yml exec app bin/setup`
|
|
- Finally, run `docker compose -f .devcontainer/docker-compose.yml exec app bin/dev`
|
|
|
|
If you are using an IDE with [support for the Development Container specification](https://containers.dev/supporting), it will run the above `docker compose` commands automatically. For **Visual Studio Code** this requires the [Dev Container extension](https://containers.dev/supporting#dev-containers).
|
|
|
|
### GitHub Codespaces
|
|
|
|
To get you coding in just a few minutes, GitHub Codespaces provides a web-based version of Visual Studio Code and a cloud-hosted development environment fully configured with the software needed for this project..
|
|
|
|
- Click this button to create a new codespace:<br>
|
|
[](https://github.com/codespaces/new?hide_repo_select=true&ref=main&repo=52281283&devcontainer_path=.devcontainer%2Fcodespaces%2Fdevcontainer.json)
|
|
- Wait for the environment to build. This will take a few minutes.
|
|
- When the editor is ready, run `bin/dev` in the terminal.
|
|
- After a few seconds, a popup will appear with a button labeled _Open in Browser_. This will open Mastodon.
|
|
- On the _Ports_ tab, right click on the “stream” row and select _Port visibility_ → _Public_.
