@Stephen-Njoroge can i get more info on this project.

[KevinOluoch]

@Stephen-Njoroge am intrested in this project, i'm good in python an am ready to learn any other language needed

[Stephen-Njoroge]

@pythonGeek and @KevinOluoch the aim is to build a system whereby people working in a company can easily report about damaged property or equipment that needs fixing so that the maintenance team in the company is notified immediately and they can then fix the issue and check in the system that they have fixed the problem, value addition ideas or clarifications are welcome, I am also glad that you are interested.

[Gacheru]

The project sounds interesting and pretty straight forward, I have been practicing using django but whether we use django or nodejs , I'm game for either.

[andela-anandaa]

@gacheru - also take a look at Django Rest Framework, we'll use that for our API/backend, on to of Django.

[Gacheru]

Will do thanks @andela-anandaa

[Skanyi]

Thanks @andela-anandaa. Will check on the framework.

I like the Rest frame work just gone through the Quickstart tutorial, now to try something complex

[Antoh1]

@Stephen-Njoroge this Idea is awesome.

[nyambati]

@andela-anandaa Does this Mean the entire application will be built on Django or are we looking at separating back-end and the front-end making user other technologies like Angular or React ?

[andela-anandaa]

@andela-thomas Sure, we will be using Angalar on front-end. Would you like us to use Ng2?

[nyambati]

I will recommend Angular 2. This is because it is Multiplatform and aligns well with most of the new technologies. Another thing I noticed in the description is that this project is company specific. What if we make this a platform where we can add organisations and they can use the platform to manage their issues.

Just as Github you can create Organisation and manage your projects within it. Then this will expand the scope of the project.

[mrmuli]

Hey guys this is a really awesome idea, I'd love to join, I'm in love with django and would also like to learn Angular via this project

[Stephen-Njoroge]

Those are awesome ideas @andela-thomas how about we schedule a meeting with @andela-anandaa to deliberate on that?

[Stephen-Njoroge]

@andela-jmuli Great! we will be kicking off today! I am also excited.

[nyambati]

@Stephen-Njoroge OK fine with me

[andela-anandaa]

@andela-thomas @Stephen-Njoroge @andela-jmuli @gacheru @antoh1 We can now move our conversation to the repo here. Then, we will close this, once we have our alpha-1.0.0 out.

[awanjila]

Hi guys, I would love to contribute to this project, what are the guidelines to follow..

[andela-anandaa]

@awanjila - welcome! Are you on the Slack Org? @Stephen-Njoroge will onboard you.

[awanjila]

Yes I am, @andela-anandaa, let me reach out to him from slack

[Antoh1]

Cool @andela-anandaa got that

[hashimamani]

BTW there should be a state like 'in review'. i don't know if it is there but i think its important to know which issues are being reviewed @andela-anandaa

[mrmuli]

@hashimamani do you have Zenhub installed? it presents all the current issues that are being tracked

[andela-anandaa]

@hashimamani -- good idea. We can add that on the pipeline, just before closed. See our Zenhub.
