Welcome to OpenKnesset’s documentation!

Open Knesset is an Open Source project for an online, open parliament. OK started with a scraping script that crawls the ancient official site and parses its data. Next, a Django based web site was developed and released in 2010.

The project has grown from a base of parliamentry data - votes, bill proposals and protocols - to include user content - tags, comments, annotations and agendas - and smart displays to simplify consumption.
