About Gancio
Gancio is a shared agenda that a local community or small thematic group runs on its own server to publish upcoming events. Its developers deliberately design for small nodes tied to a specific territory rather than large platforms aiming to host millions of users.
The current stable release is 1.28.2, and a 2.0 beta is available for new instances, with the project advising existing instances not to upgrade yet. A demo and installation guides for both versions are published on the website.
