Import some projects into Laddr #33

Open wbushey opened 9 years ago

wbushey commented 9 years ago

Keeping track of and managing projects has been an issue for Open Twin Cities since the beginning (hence ticket #1 being about project listing). This year we've been exploring this issue as part of a broader effort to help members of OTC who want to find out how to get involved with the community and civic technology.

@themightychris has setup stage and production instances of Laddr for OTC. Laddr is a platform that Code for Philly has created for Brigades that has some really great features related to projects. Each project has it's own space for describing the project and activities related to the project; people can become members of a project; projects have a life cycle (initial idea, prototyping, hibernating, etc...); projects can be searched and browsed by various tags (issue area, technology used, etc...).

I think it would be really good to put a few of the projects currently listed on the Projects page into http://otc-staging.poplar.phl.io/, and start poking around Laddr to see what we like.

Hey, just dropping a note that we (code for philly) are building out an informal roadmap for some nearer-term changes we'd like to make, especially on the Projects page.
