#2Love the idea. The UI looks a bit dated. My recommendation would be to just copy what the main players have done as a starting point, unless you have a radically better UX solution. Then innovate from there.

I like starting with the excellent and open source AdminLTE interface.

Worse than proprietary!

#6But instead of only the code being handled by the VCS, why not make the wiki and tracker distributed too?

#7Kallithea originated in 2014 [1] as a fork of RhodeCode 1.7.2 to rectify a licensing ambiguity that the fork-author felt arose in 2013. The GUI web interface was the most affected by hasty replacements, which perhaps explains the lack of polish in design.
RhodeCode continued to be developed, and in 2016 the RhodeCode Community Edition was re-licensed under AGPLv3.

Gogs is a visual clone of the Github graphic design, functions, menu structure, in short, just about everything from Github. SO sure, it works well and looks good, but uh.. its a total copy. Meanwhile Gitea has forked Gogs, as noted extensively very recently.
Regarding Kallithea, I installed and used it for work. I like Kallithea, although the features and interface are not as well developed as some alternatives discussed here.
Kallithea is far more lightweight to setup and admin that Gitlab, but not as full-featured as Gitea, which I recommend to anyone who asks.

I just installed gogs. It's very nice. Smooth, simple, familiar. I wonder how they can get away with copying Github so obviously though.

#10Have you tried github.com instead
