CommunityEngine is a Ruby on Rails engine (gem) that adds social networking features to an existing Rails application, including user accounts, blogs, photos, clippings, and favorites. It mounts as a Rails engine and supports optional OmniAuth-based social login.
Use cases
- add social networking features to an existing rails app
- build a community site with user blogs and photos
- add user accounts and profiles to my application
- self-host a social network with photo sharing
- add social login with twitter and facebook to my rails app
When to choose
- you have a Rails 4.1.x application and want to bolt on community features quickly
- you want a self-hosted, customizable social networking engine in Ruby
When to avoid
- you are on modern Rails versions (5+), which are not supported by the main branch
- you need a standalone social network product rather than an engine embedded in an existing app
- you need actively maintained software with recent security updates
