GUI for entering local Fairphoners communities #7

Closed StefanBrand closed 7 years ago

Have a :heavy_plus_sign: button and a popup where people can add new Fairphone communities to the map. (Would be best in conjunction with #4 reverse geocoding.)

I've been thinking about proper and easy solutions to this. There's a solution involving an <iframe>, but I don't know what kind of control we would have over the interaction flow ocurring inside the said <iframe>. Also, it should be as easy as possible for non-developers, and we have technical limitations (i.e. all our code is frontend; no backend is involved).

Anyway, we should implement #8 before that. Let me chew it a bit more meanwhile.

This will be obsolete as very probably Fairphone will provide a database on their website, where people can add data. We will be able to fetch that data and it will go online immediately.

Woa! That' be awesome and solve the collaboration issue! :D

StefanBrand commented 7 years ago

Exactly! Maybe you have some comments on how to implement this in the best way? Using some kind of SQL?

Roboe commented 7 years ago

No suggestion at all on the backend implementation (the map is implementation-agnostic). We just need them to expose a public endpoint (i.e. no auth required) for each layer markers with JSON data and CORS enabled, :dancer:
