Frontend people needed for bkkhack collaboration app

[djay]

Simple way for people to post

• what they are working on
• where they sit
• how to get in touch

How it could work:

• login via github auth
• view a background image which is a seating map
• drag your avatar where you want to sit
• add some text on what you want to work on. Collaboration indicated via proximity and text only.
• clicking on someone else initiates gitter chat or github profile
• bonus points for someway to indicate online status
• admin users can move anyone + upload/move the background

Non functional requirements

• All data stored in github so no server required. Can be hosted on github pages
  • Map can be stored in an issue description. + link to github page with this app.
  • Each comment stores the position and tags of the a single user. Can subscribe to changes to comments via https://developer.github.com/v3/activity/events/types/#issuecommentevent
• Frontend in something good but hopefully works well on mobile as well.

going work on this @ches ?

[ches]

I might. It may not get much further than me fooling around with a new web framework, and fancy frontend isn't my forte, so if anyone wants to try prototyping a seat map UI be my guest and let's chat.

Maybe Will could work on the seat ui in his google Polymer project?

[djay]

put in some basic functional requirements of how it can work.

@waf let know when you have got this up and running on our github so I can test it out. Also let me know if you want me to setup the heroku gatekeeper instance on my account.
