Hi all,

Looking forward to another virtual meetup!

I'll be doing a casual overview of the opensource government https://www.va.gov project. I think this may be the future of government websites right here! I've been working on this project alongside many others for the past 2 years, mostly doing devops but have a good handle on the whole stack as well. I'll share a bunch about it and answer all the questions that I can!

You can see the source code here:
1. Frontend - https://github.com/department-of-veterans-affairs/vets-website
1. Backend - https://github.com/department-of-veterans-affairs/va.gov-cms

It is fully open-source which includes a public files and sanitized database in S3 (follow dev setup instructions for Lando).
