Playasoft Volunteer Database is a free, open-source web application for organizing volunteers at festivals and community events. It is self-hosted and provides event, department, shift, and signup management. Organizers create departments and schedule shifts with specific times, durations, capacities, and individual signup slots. Volunteers can sign up themselves. Access controls let organizers restrict shifts by permission level, using built-in roles such as admin, volunteer, medical, fire, and ranger. Volunteers can upload certification documents for administrator review before receiving a corresponding role. Password protection can limit access to sensitive shifts. The project includes Docker Compose setup instructions and requires Docker and Docker Compose for its quick start. Its documented Docker environment uses MariaDB 10.11. Redis and a separate WebSocket server can provide optional real-time updates. The repository identifies an AGPL-3.0 license, and the free plan costs nothing. Multiple organizations, multiple events per installation, and a hosted option are listed as roadmap phases.
