# NGX Ramblers: Platform Overview

_____

While the multi-tenant discussion is driven by email rollout, it is worth noting that NGX Ramblers is a **complete group website platform** — not just an email tool.

## What NGX Ramblers Provides

Groups adopting the platform receive:



- **Event management** — create, edit, and publish group walks and social events with GPS routes, map integration, and automatic syncing with Ramblers walks manager
- **Event booking** — lightweight booking system with capacity management, waitlists, and confirmation emails
- **Photo galleries** — album management with image upload, resizing, and gallery views
- **CMS pages** — flexible content management with markdown, action buttons, carousels, maps, and embedded content
- **Committee document management** — file uploads organised by year and document type (AGM minutes, agendas, financial statements)
- **Member administration** — member database, role-based access, bulk import/export, and membership renewal tracking
- **Email** — newsletter and notification sending via Brevo, with configurable templates and sender identity
- **External integrations** — Ramblers walks manager, Meetup event publishing, Google Maps, OS Maps, Flickr



## Migration Path

Groups migrating off legacy platforms such as [Ramblers Webs](https://www.ramblers-webs.org.uk/) get a modern, fully featured replacement. The NGX Ramblers CLI includes an automated environment setup wizard that provisions a complete site — database, storage, DNS, email configuration — in minutes.

## Relevance to Multi-Tenant Discussion

The email capability is what Ramblers Head Office has identified as the immediate rollout priority, but the platform's full value is much broader. Any multi-tenant architecture must support **all** of these features with per-group isolation, not just email.
