Feel free to criticize, ask and suggest new ideas. The previous canvas we had was too general and the scope was very unrealistic. This one tries to focus on what we can actually deliver now that is still relevant and necessary based on our experiences with other open source projects.
Problems
Lack of awareness about the potential of open source workflows to solve contepmporary problems and reach sustainable development goals.
Limited scaling model for open hardware projects documentation and decentralized design contributions.
Solutions
Use a common workflow and tool, based on giT+github
Provide and teach others a standard, scalable and flexible workflow for design communities
Resources
Decent internet speed and computer
Git and github knowledge
Proper documentation guidelines and best practices
Specific tools for collaboration like FreeCad, Open Scad, etc.
Design Documents that can be read like drawings of parts in a pdf or image format.
Community leads, project leads and contributors
Unique Value Proposition
We provide and teach how to use open design documentation and workflow standards using github as a main tool. This allows us to create design repositories in a scalable, concurrent and collective fashion. We work with our users incorporating their feedback coming from replicating the specific designs they have used.
Key metrics
num. of contributions per month
num. of mature repositories.
num. of design replications and fabrications
num. of Project leads
High documentation and workflow standards
