There are more and more devices with no Adobe Flash plugin support in web browser (new Android and Apple phones and tables, etc.). The aim of this project is to replace Flash testdrive in SUSE Studio with HTML5 client.
So our current implementation bases on our project from a previous Cloud workshop which uses noVNC.
The main issue is still the multiple keyboard layout conversion, but even the currently used Flash implementation has similar issues.
Our implementation is not perfect but it has some advantages over the Flash implementation for example:
* Running on basically every device which is shipped with a modern HTML5 browser (no plugins needed)
* Being able to enter AltGr key combinations via a button
* Allowing umlauts if the correct keyboard layouts are used
* Support of encrypted Testdrive connections if officially signed SSL certificates are available
I have created a pull request against Studio
The development host is http://acubens.arch.suse.de:3000/ .
Jan has created a patch against QEMU to be able to change the keyboard layout via the console instead of just using the cmd parameter.
I have pushed some changes upstream to noVNC but I am not sure if they want to use it. I need to discuss this with them since noVNC does not only target Linux.
Looking for hackers with the skills:

you want to look into how SUSE Cloud (via openstack-horizon) does it with noVNC using a websocket-proxy process

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As my Rails knowledge was pretty outdated and I had 0 experience with Turbo (wich I want to use in the app), I started following a turbo-rails course.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

Kudos aka openSUSE Recognition Platform by lkocman
Description
I started the Kudos application shortly after Leap 16.0 to create a simple, friendly way to recognize people for their work and contributions to openSUSE. There’s so much more to our community than just submitting requests in OBS or gitea we have translations (not only in Weblate), wiki edits, forum and social media moderation, infrastructure maintenance, booth participation, talks, manual testing, openQA test suites, and more!
Goals
Kudos under github.com/openSUSE/kudos with build previews aka netlify
Have a kudos.opensuse.org instance running in production
Build an easy-to-contribute recognition platform for the openSUSE communit a place where everyone can send and receive appreciation for their work, across all areas of contribution.
In the future, we could even explore reward options such as vouchers for t-shirts or other community swag, small tokens of appreciation to make recognition more tangible.
