According to W3C documentation [1]:
> For compatibility with legacy content, the word-break property also
> supports a deprecated break-word keyword. When specified, this has the
> same effect as word-break: normal and overflow-wrap: anywhere,
> regardless of the actual value of the overflow-wrap property.
This is currently *not* detected by the `property-no-deprecated`
stylelint rule. However, since this rule detects other places where we
should use `overflow-wrap`, we're changing it as part of the same pull
request.
Note that, as of November 2025, 98.22% of the browsers support
`overflow-wrap: anywhere`. We're still making this change because we
only use this property in two specific places and it isn't very likely
that long words will really be a problem with the remaining 1.78%.
By the way, I'm not sure why we use this property in the budget
invesment show paragraphs and not in other similar places. It was
introduced in commit e3878ff43, alongside other changes which don't seem
to be related. When in doubt, we leave things as they were, so we're
doing the same thing here.

CONSUL DEMOCRACY
Citizen Participation and Open Government Application
This is the opensource code repository of the eParticipation website CONSUL DEMOCRACY, originally developed for the Madrid City government eParticipation website, and currently maintained by the open source software community in collaboration with the CONSUL DEMOCRACY Foundation.
Documentation
Check the ongoing documentation to learn more about how to start your own CONSUL DEMOCRACY fork, install it, customize it and learn to use it as an administrator/maintainer.
CONSUL DEMOCRACY Foundation and project website
You can access the main website of the project at http://consuldemocracy.org where you can find information about the use of the platform, the CONSUL DEMOCRACY Foundation, the global community of users and local partners, news, and ways to get more support or get in touch.
Configuration for development and test environments
NOTE: The installation process will vary depending on your operating system. Please make sure to follow the Local Installation Guide appropriate for your OS.
Prerequisites: install git, Ruby 3.3.10, CMake, pkg-config, Node.js 20.19.5, ImageMagick and PostgreSQL (>=13).
Note: The bin/setup command below might fail if you've configured a username and password for PostgreSQL. If that's the case, edit the lines containing username: and password: (adding your credentials) in the config/database.yml file and run bin/setup again.
git clone https://github.com/consuldemocracy/consuldemocracy.git
cd consuldemocracy
bin/setup
bin/rake db:dev_seed
Run the app locally:
bin/rails s
You can run the tests with:
bin/rspec
Note: running the whole test suite on your machine might take more than an hour, so it's strongly recommended that you setup a Continuous Integration system in order to run them using parallel jobs every time you open or modify a pull request (if you use GitHub Actions or GitLab CI, this is already configured in .github/workflows/tests.yml and .gitlab-ci.yml) and only run tests related to your current task while developing on your machine. When you configure the application for the first time, it's recommended that you run at least one test in spec/models/ and one test in spec/system/ to check your machine is properly configured to run the tests.
You can use the default admin user from the seeds file:
user: admin@consul.dev pass: 12345678
But for some actions like voting, you will need a verified user, the seeds file also includes one:
user: verified@consul.dev pass: 12345678
Configuration for production environments

Current state
Development started on 2015 July 15th. Code was deployed to production on 2015 september 7th to decide.madrid.es. Since then new features are added often. You can take a look at the current features at the project's website and future features at the Roadmap and open issues list.
