For developers
Here’s how to actually dig in.
32°N is a Rust monorepo, built in the open by one person. This page is the honest map of what’s here to read, build, and follow right now — not a dressed-up version of it.
01 · Source code
The repo isn’t public yet.
I’m not going to link you to a GitHub page that either 404s or shows you the wrong codebase. The Rust monorepo this site describes lives in a private repo while it’s this early — the founding phase (one workspace, one shared rule-set, an automated test suite that has to keep passing) is what’s actually done so far. It goes public before 1.0.

02 · Get the binaries, or build it yourself
Nothing to install yet.
Same honesty as above: there’s no compiled build to hand you, because there isn’t one yet. When there’s a hub build worth running on an actual boat, it lands here — MIT-licensed, no account required to get it.
[Placeholder: downloads and a self-host / build-from-source guide, once there’s something to run.]
03 · Docs
Developer docs get their own designed area.
Architecture, the data model, the contributing guide, an API reference — a proper docs section, once there’s a public repo underneath it to document accurately. The user guide will live there too, alongside the developer docs, rather than as a separate consumer help centre — this whole corner of the site is written for people following the technical build, not end users.

04 · Engineering center
Technical articles, and how to contribute.
The plan is write-ups on the actual engineering decisions — why Rust, why one monorepo, why the data model doesn’t reuse Signal K — plus a real contribution guide. The stance on contributions hasn’t changed: I’m not taking outside contributions before 1.0 lands. Once it does, the door opens, with a plain-English process instead of a legal maze.

Get updates
No repo link to click yet — so here’s the honest alternative.
An email when there’s real progress: a public repo, a first binary, an actual docs site. Same list as the rest of the site — nothing developer-exclusive about it.
