Should the Code for Liverpool website be a fork of the Code for America API? #13

It seems that Code for America are building an API to make it easier to track projects and activity of their Brigades - see https://github.com/codeforamerica/cfapi

That looks like it would do a fair bit of the work in automating extending the Code for Liverpool site, given that it's a place to point to interesting civic tech projects in the city, so I figured I'd throw the suggestion up here for discussion.

Seems like a sensible plan. The site's hosted on github pages atm, but given it's really just a single static HTML page, I can't see why we couldn't just serve it from the cfapi server.

Will need to set up a box to host it though I guess.

Happy to help out (or just help fund) setting this up on a box somewhere.
