GSoC 2019 :: Ideas List :: Brainstorming

arpansac commented 5 years ago

This is going to be the first time we are applying for Google Summer of Code and we're super excited to apply!

All the prerequisites include: Ruby on Rails, HTML, CSS, JavaScript.

Now that you've known about us from the Readme, this is a platform which is actually being used for events, beginning with New Delhi, India, and we're soon expanding it to more Tech communities with more requests coming in. Since it is something which has been built by the community in the initial days, we thing the best option to grow is with open source contributions.

So, here it begins, the list of ideas for GSoC (with a hope that we will get a spot!) Some of the ideas have already been initialized with an issue, rest of them, let's brainstorm and reach a conclusion soon

Query Optimizations: Improving the code's performance, since the database is quite spread out with a host of polymorphic relations, we are looking to improve the db query performances to a lot of extent, here we need someone who can patiently work on understanding the db structure and then work in the right direction.
Community Activity + Page: This is a simple example page of the first community, from where this platform is coming. The task would be a revamp of the community page + sending in the latest updates to the members about their communities
Improving the Forms: With our own Data Forms for collecting registration/other data to get the best for community's interests and feedbacks/surveys, we need to be able to reuse the questions, reorder questions in a form with keeping the past filled responses intact. This is divided into three parts viz. Designing the page, proposing what all features should be present while creating a form and making elements of the form reusable.
Increasing Online Interaction: With Tech Communities, these are the people who actually first meet in person and then want to continue the interaction. What all can we do (without bugging the attendees) to keep the interaction going is the question to be solved here.
The Face: Refer to #12
Chain of Communities: Refer to #15

This is just somethings we think would be the right steps to take at this point of time. We're always looking out for better productive ideas/features/suggestions which you want to propose. Feel free to!
