I'm thinking of trying out brigadehub: https://github.com/brigadehub/brigadehub/

So after some digging through brigadehub, I realized the project has been abandoned. Is the website redesign something you still want @RobDavis ? Aesthetically the current codeforftl.org is pleasant, so I'm guessing you want some features that the brigadehub provided? Or still pursue the redesign of the website and include web application features?

@hchev001 I just checked back up on brigadehub and it looks like the project is being retired. I still like the idea behind it, that we focus on our community needs and projects rather than the site itself. I'm not sure exactly what our next step should be. Going back to the basic premise of the site, I think it needs the following.

  1. Provide onboarding for new/interested people
  2. Show our current projects and their status (or a path to get that info)
  3. Show our story/previous projects and wins
