What is it?

Gathio is an event hosting platform for creating shareable event pages that guests can view and respond to without creating an account. It is described as federated and privacy-first, and the project's public instance runs at gath.io.

Event pages are designed to be shared by link and to expire on their own, so event data does not persist indefinitely. Users who want to run their own server can find setup instructions in the project's documentation site, and the source docs are also kept in the repository's docs directory.

The codebase is written in TypeScript and licensed under GPL-3.0.
