#BeLL-Apps: Communities and Nations
##Introduction
# BeLL-Apps: Communities and Nations
## Introduction

The BeLL (Basic e-Learning Library) is not only a library, but also an individualized learning system, where students can select their own books and courses to target their individual goals. The two kinds of BeLL apps are described below.

####BeLL Communities (Local)
#### BeLL Communities (Local)

* Communities are how the BeLL functions on a local network, with users connecting to a community using either a laptop or a RPi and a router.
* Periodically communities sync with Nations on the internet, which includes sending and receiving educational materials.
* In step 1 you created a BeLL community on your computer. As you follow the steps on this page you will access and configure your community.

####BeLL Nations (Internet)

Check that your vagrant is up and running with `vagrant global-status`. Assuming that it's running or you launch it using `vagrant up`, open Firefox (download if you don't already have it - it is VERY important that you always use the BeLL in Firefox to limit errors). Go to http://127.0.0.1:5985. You could also use http://localhost:5985, meaning that 127.0.0.1 refers to your machine. Both localhost:5985 and 127.0.0.1:5985 are interchangeable. Make sure to have the correct port number (5985), otherwise it will not work correctly.

Your first page will look like this:

Double click on the MyBeLL icon on your desktop. It will open up a Firefox browser and show you the user interface (see below). If you get an `Unable to connect` page, check it out at [FAQ](faq.md#Technical_Issues_and_Questions).

##Database

[CouchDB](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CouchDB) (also known as Apache CouchDB) is a database software that we use for the BeLL. You can see the backend interface of our CouchDB at http://127.0.0.1:5985/_utils. In _utils, you have the opportunity to see all of the software dev of your vagrant BeLL.
