Public Meetings
A project to aggregate public civic meetings available in Wichita to a single
location. It is powered by:
- Scrapers in python (check the
prototype-web-scraping
branch)
- Web app with Elixir, Phoenix and PostgreSQL
To get involved be sure to join the Open Wichita
slack and hop in to the #public-meetings
channel.
