Fastfude is a website created back in late 1997 to serve as a social network (though the term didn't exist back then) for the musicians and music fans of Northern Ireland.
The basic goal of the site is to act as a hub for people interested in music from in-and-around the region to interact, collaborate and trade, spawning new relationships and projects that feed back into the music scene.
The (old) site is currently hosted at http://fastfude.org/
A live copy of the beta is at http://beta.fastfude.org/ (Password protected to keep Google out! u: scenewreckers, p: hardmen)
This github project hosts the source code for the website. Anyone is welcome to contribute code, request enhancements or report bugs.
The site is built using the Codeigniter framework on a standard LAMP stack.
To get started:
- set up a local LAMP development environment
- clone the repo
