Kamu is the external user database for the University of Helsinki, built on top of Django and Bootstrap.
It’s used to store and manage information about external users and their relationship to the university.
Kamu is built for the needs of the University of Helsinki, but it’s designed to be adaptable to other similar use cases i.e. user information and role management.
Check out the documentation for more information about Kamu, features etc.
See the requirements and configuration guide for development and production environments.
Kamu is currently developed in the local GitLab of the University of Helsinki, but we are planning to move to GitHub before 1.0.0 release.
You are welcome to contribute to the project by creating issues or pull requests. Check style and commit guidelines before creating any pull requests.
We use Semantic Versioning. We are currently in the development phase, but plan to publish 1.0.0 release in the second half of 2024.
