Initial idea to build a tool to help rubygems community to rotate maintainers for abandoned projects. Many new developers would like to maintain a project to learn new stuff and many good projects are abandoned by initial authors. So we need just to connect them.

Application build with rails should be able to grab data from github, bitbucket, rubyforge and rubygems and extract knowledge:

  • Some project had last release long ago (e.g. 6 month)
  • This project have a corresponding source with some active forks

After such extraction notification should be send as issue to all forks for original author and forks authors to connect and discuss possibility of merging upstream code to main repo, pick new or add new maintainer and make new release.

Looking for hackers with the skills:

rails rpsec openid ruby

      This could also be a nice way to create something like an activity index for projects (maybe as a side effect of this project). This is such an important criterion when selecting which projects to use, that it could be a great help. Maybe as something similar as the badges from CI and other systems, which now often appear on GitHub.

    Recipes catalog and calculator in Rails 8 by gfilippetti

    My wife needs a website to catalog and sell the products of her upcoming bakery, and I need to learn and practice modern Rails. So I'm using this Hack Week to build a modern store using the latest Ruby on Rails best practices, ideally up to the deployment.

    TO DO

    • Index page
    • Product page
    • Admin area -- Supplies calculator based on orders -- Orders notification
    • Authentication
    • Payment
    • Deployment

    Day 1

    As my Rails knowledge was pretty outdated and I had 0 experience with Turbo (wich I want to use in the app), I started following a turbo-rails course. I completed 5 of 11 chapters.

    Day 2

    Continued the course until chapter 8 and added live updates & an empty state to the app. I should finish the course on day 3 and start my own project with the knowledge from it.

    Hackweek 24

    For this Hackweek I'll continue this project, focusing on a Catalog/Calculator for my wife's recipes so she can use for her Café.

    Day 1
