Shackleton is an all-in-one PHP8 web application designed for ham radio operators and radio enthusiasts. Whether you're logging contacts, tracking satellites, or managing repeaters, Shackleton provides everything you need in a single platform to enhance your radio operations.
Shackleton is built for the amateur radio community with an emphasis on simplicity, functionality, and beautiful design. It offers a rich feature set, covering essential tools and utilities that radio operators rely on daily.
The project is currently in active development, and our team is working on an early alpha version. We aim to make Shackleton the go-to web app for both experienced and aspiring operators.
