Badge plumbing for all!

Welcome to the Mozilla Backpack wiki. For an overview of the OpenBadges project, and to earn your first OBI compliant badge, see OpenBadges.org.

This repo holds the source code for the Mozilla Backpack: backpack.openbadges.org, and acts as the pipes that keep the larger badges ecosystem humming. The goal of the code (and the project) is to provide a user-centric backpack that allows badge earners to collect OBI compliant badges from multiple badge issuers. The user then has the option of displaying the badges wherever they like.
