One Planet Digital Ltd (OnePlanet.com) is a company building and promoting new digital platform that enables users to create, share and connect sustainability plans. OnePlanet.com uniquely allows cross-departmental and cross-sector working – enabling connections to be made all the way from citizens and students to city-wide plans. It uses graph database technology, some of which has been developed by the OnePlanet.com team and will be underpinned by machine learning and AI to help users make the best sustainability decisions possible.

The company is built on the premise that environmental and social challenges offer a massive opportunity to create a scalable and profitable business which can do good.

OnePlanet.com Web Application is an Isomorphic environment where Server and client data are shared and written in the same common language: RUBY.

On the server side we are using RubyOnRails stack and NEO4J as a graph database. On the client side we are using REACT wrapped into a RUBY language layer (thanks to hyperstack.org). Additionally Material-UI and Vis.js for the presentation layer.
