Introduction

This website holds the documentation for TourForge, an open source set of software that makes it easy to create custom tour guide apps. TourForge has two main components: the TourForge tour builder (often just referred to as TourForge) and the software library TourForge Guide.

The TourForge tour builder, located at https://tourforge.github.io/builder/, is a web application that provides a simple interface to build the tour data files that are used by TourForge Guide. A work-in-progress tutorial on how to use TourForge is available in our guide on using the tour builder.

TourForge Guide is a Flutter library providing a baseline with the majority of features needed by a tour guide application. Although almost all of the work has already been done for you, building your app with the TourForge Guide library still requires some software engineering knowledge (or a lot of patience). You will need to set up your development environment and follow the guide on building an app.
