Did you know the Opencaching network has a 20-year history of shared, open-source code? 🤯

Two main branches of our code exist today: one from Opencaching-PL and one from Opencaching-DE (Opencaching.pl actually branched off two decades ago). What site runs on which code? Check out the diagram!

No matter the code branch, all our sister-sites work together thanks to OKAPI! This project connects the entire Opencaching network, allowing anyone to build an app to access geocaches across all participating sites through one API 🔗

In a way, our network is a decentralized, interconnected platform, just like the Fediverse!

Have you ever found a cache from one of our sister-sites? Tell us about it in the comments! 👇

“With zebra legs, a giraffe tongue, and a unicorn’s reputation, the #okapi sounds made-up, but it’s very real (and very cute). Once mistaken for a myth, this forest-dweller proves that not all monsters are imaginary, and some might just be hiding in plain sight.”

@RickiTarr I know you probably won't be able to actually unterstand it, but it's too good not to share: #German singer #FunnyVanDannen wrote this awesome song, in which he wanted to have an #Okapi poster for his birthday, but received one of a Malayan #tapir instead.
