The difference among Open Y versions
The standard version of the platform comes with the most common suggested components. The standard version is recommended for the majority of YMCAs. Once you have the Open Y platform, you can add any additional components you choose.
Installing the Open Y code
Once you (or more likely, your partner) have installed the Open Y code, you are free to start using it. There’s no sign up, no logos or ads to get in the way of using it.
