Effektio #5

Closed BramvdnHeuvel closed 1 year ago

BramvdnHeuvel commented 1 year ago

Effektio is a community organizing app built on top of Matrix.

Though it currently doesn't have any custom event types in use, it intends to implement these in the future.

To quote @ben:effektio.org on this:

yes, as the whitepaper states, we eventually want events to be part of the matrix-spec or - alternatively, if matrix thinks they shouldn't be part of its spec - be part of a Effektio-Spec which has a similar open governance system as matrix has. With one crucial detail changed though and that is we want to experiment and build it from the UI-side, meaning we won't spec events very early and then build implementations, but start with a design/mock, then think about events, then build and get something into the hands, refine it, and once we are ready we put that all into a full spec - with as little changes as possible after the fact. This is too ensure we built super solid UI/UX first and will probably ingrain UI/UX-behaviour and expectations into the spec, too.

Ideally, you'll find all that on https://docs.effektio.org/ - which currently is only the documentating the events as part of the rust API docs though: https://docs.effektio.org/api/main/rust/effektio_core/events/index.html

Based on this information, it might take a while before definitife custom event types will be published for use in the more general Matrix ecosystem.

Just like the Circles project, (#7) this doesn't have any custom event types yet and hence will be closed. It might be reopened in the future if custom event types are encountered in the ecosystem or announced by the project.
