Short description of the Open Social project:

What does the Open Social distribution do?

Open Social is a Drupal 8 distribution for building communities and social intranets. It is positioned as the successor of Drupal Commons, taking full advantage of the new possibilities of Drupal 8.

In a nutshell, our software empowers people to effectively collaborate and organize. At the time of writing Open Social is the most installed Drupal 8 distribution with over 800 active installations.

A detailed description about the project is available in this article from Acquia Developer Center.

Open Social development is done on Github but is pushed to drupal.org every new release. Our policy is that the code needs to be reviewed by at least one other developer in our team to make sure it works and to comply to the correct Drupal security practices. In addition to this we also have Travis Integration to run our functionality, unit and security tests. Example: https://travis-ci.org/goalgorilla/open_social/builds/263457859
