Visit Launchpad

Launchpad is a web-based software collaboration platform run by Canonical that brings together bug tracking, Git code hosting, code reviews, Ubuntu package building, crowd-sourced translations, mailing lists, answer tracking and specification tracking (blueprints) in one place, so projects can work across boundaries and tools.

Its features include bug tracking across project boundaries, Git code hosting, code reviews with control over who can land code, Ubuntu package building and hosting through Personal Package Archives, crowd-sourced translations, mailing lists, answer tracking and FAQs, and specification tracking as blueprints. It also offers a Python client library, launchpadlib, for its web service.

Launchpad is for software developers and projects that need to collaborate across tools and boundaries. Users can create an account to get started, and a user guide and tour are available.
