Lychen is an environmental and agricultural symbiosis platform aiming to connect diverse actors across the local territory. Our platform brings together food producers, consumers, researchers, local communities, and other stakeholders in a collaborative space to foster sustainable agricultural practices and environmental initiatives.
The platform serves as a digital hub for:
- Food Production: Centralizing agricultural resources and connecting producers with local distribution channels.
- Food Consumption: Educating and supporting consumers in making sustainable food choices.
- Waste Valorization: Providing resources and strategies for repurposing organic waste.
- Local Activities: Coordinating events, workshops, and community initiatives that strengthen the local ecosystem.
By promoting symbiotic relationships between these actors, Lychen encourages ecological and sustainable practices that support biodiversity, food security, and a resilient local economy.
Lychen is an GPL-3.0-licensed open source project with its ongoing development made possible entirely by the support backers. If you'd like to join them, please consider sponsoring Lychen development.
For questions and support please use the official forum or community chat. The issue list of this repo is exclusively for bug reports and feature requests.
We strive to use the best technologies available for each purpose. We are not driven by trends 🦄
Each technology is carefully chosen to ensure maintainability, developer skill improvement and satisfaction, scalability, and performance.
