Picking an open source project for the community #1

Open vladnicula opened 7 years ago

vladnicula commented 7 years ago

We should consider starting an open source project or to pick an existing project and focus our efforts into contributing to it.

Main goals would be:

  1. To add visibility to the community. As discussed earlier, we could use some international visibility.
  2. To see how much of an impact we can have together as a community if we all focus our attention on one project (or a set of projects) at a given time.

Let's keep this issue as a placeholder/inbox for ideas on this topic.

Hi, I am dreaming of some code that would be community of government oriented which could offer value to all. Something like openapi.ro, but for free.

vladnicula commented 7 years ago

@paulbrie that's a nice idea. Something that would make an impact in Romania is definitely something I would be interested in.

tudorgergely commented 7 years ago

I am all in for that as well. And I am confident that within this community we will find a lot of people interested in doing some quality, opensource work :)

Must be noted here: Vlad's idea to build a progressive web app framework/bootstrap project, as the first open source project we start. :)

alexnm commented 7 years ago

+1 for that

Hey :). Yeah, I'd love to make a starter that would include (or not) a framework (prolly React) + all the things needed for PWA (SW, App manifest, do some responsive design, code splitting, push notifications, applying PRPL, etc.)

It's harder to do it with a framework, but not impossible. Truth is, most of us use a framework/lib/combination these days.

I was a React + Redux + Webpack starter that's been migrated to latest of each (RR4, latest React + Redux, Webpack 2). Might be a good thing to build on top.

Lemme know what you think :)

@r31gN, your proposal could be a good candidate for the repo. Seems like we'll keep this on hold for now.
