- OpenTG is an open-source implementation of a bulletin board system (BBS) software program written for Linux and/or Unix. Written from scratch in JRuby, the goal is to reproduce the look, feel, and functionality of similar legacy BBS systems such as Tag, Telegard, Maximus or Renegade, which were written for DOS and OS/2 during the pre-internet communication era. No original code from any BBS has been used nor referenced in order to focus on innovation and unique capabilities. On August 17, 2008, the project was founded by Chris Tusa with work toward version 1 of the code. A year later, development on this branch, now known as OpenTG/1, ended. The back-end configuration tool had taken shape using the NCurses library, and database abstraction using ruby-DBI and PostgreSQL for the backend database engine. The developer deemed this version of the code a failure due to problems maintaining NCurses screen layouts and SQL queries through DBI. With lessons learned and upfront design planning, iteration two now known simply as OpenTG, is under heavy development. The code has moved from MRI Ruby to JRuby running on OpenJDK. The latest code introduces:
* MVC Design (Model View Controller)
* Database Abstraction through the use of the Sequel ORM
* Input Validation from Apache Commons
* Integrated H2 SQL Database
* Themes based on the FreeMarker template engine
* TgThemer template editor (Graphical Application using QT5) (en)
