What is Adapt (Open Source)?

Adapt is a free, open-source eLearning project that provides a framework and companion authoring tool for building responsive, single-version HTML5 courses. Courses built with Adapt use a vertical-scrolling, webpage-like navigation style and automatically adapt to desktop, tablet, and smartphone screens. The project is maintained by a global community of developers and learning technology companies rather than a single commercial vendor.

The Adapt authoring tool gives non-developers a web-based interface for building courses without writing code, while the underlying Adapt Framework, hosted on GitHub, lets developers extend functionality with custom plugins and components. Output supports Section 508 and ARIA accessibility standards, right-to-left languages such as Arabic, and SCORM-compliant packaging for delivery through any compatible learning management system. Being open source, there is no license fee, though self-hosting and setup require technical resources.
