Drupal App Code Sprint at BADCamp 2011

by Achieve Internet // October 14, 2011

You Know What Would Be Cool...?

You know what would be cool? Six simple words that have led many a Drupal developer to endless sleepless nights.

Well, here we go again... wouldn't it be cool to get some smart people together and build some apps? Sounded good over beers, so the team at Achieve ran with the idea and convinced our friends at Phase2, ImageX and Treehouse (more beers) to join us for a code sprint Oct 21st.

Event information: http://2011.badcamp.net/program/sprints

We have the beer drinkers, now we we're looking for those smart people!  If you're interested in building apps, come join us. We need UX folks, themers, and of course, developers.

Come code some Drupal Apps with us at BADCamp 2011

Bring Your Ideas for Apps to Build

We have many ideas for cool apps we could build:

Integrations

  • Mailchimp -> newsletters
  • Google Analytics -> SEO reporting suite
  • NodeSquirrel -> content backup and deployment

General audience

  • Photo gallery -> using the media module, content types, plupload, etc.
  • Socialize -> an app that integrates the functionality of Follow + Disqus + Twitter + Facebook + Google Plus

Publishing-specific audience

  • Classifieds
  • Circulation / subscription integration
  • Paywall

Public sector-specific audience

  • Petitioning
  • Archive tool -> archives content compliant with the Federal Records Act
  • Emergency notifications
  • Meeting minutes -> can be reused in a lot of contexts

We need more ideas and YOU! 

Chirp in: Tweet your ideas to @achieveinternet with the hashtag #appidea and we will put it up on the whiteboard during the Drupal Apps Code Sprint. See you all at @badcamp
