Codeberg is a free, community-driven software development platform operated by the non-profit Codeberg e.V. and centered on the Forgejo software forge. Repositories support Git source code, issue tracking, and wikis. Codeberg Pages publishes static websites at a codeberg.page address or custom domain, and CI/CD options include a Woodpecker instance and Forgejo Actions. Weblate is available for software localization, with integration documentation for Keycloak, LiberaPay, Matrix, and Read the Docs. Users can enable two-factor authentication; Codeberg recommends SSH keys for passwordless repository access and publishes host fingerprints for server verification. The service is intended for free/libre software projects and may reject uses that do not contribute to that purpose or abuse its infrastructure. The free plan includes 750 MiB of Git storage, 1.5 GiB for packages, LFS, and attachments, 100 MiB of private or personal content, and 100 repositories. The default repository limit is 100 for users and organizations; increases can be requested through a public repository. Codeberg recommends self-hosting Forgejo as an alternative deployment option.
