DRAFT 0.1
What we are building
A GUI to allow anyone to create popcorn-powered rich media pages.
Source
https://github.com/secretrobotron/popcorn-maker
Roadmap
ALPHA
September 10th @ OVC
- What we're offering: You can load the app in the browser, choose from our template gallery, make something, save your progress in local storage, and export finished product as zip.
- Technical requirements:
- Domain: popcornmaker.mozilla.org (with optional redirect from popcornmaker.org)
- serve static html/js/css files
- ability to run a script that concatenates JSON with static files on the server, and spits out finished projects as tarball/zips
- a captcha to prevent abuse of the above
BETA
November 5 @ MFW
- What we're offering: You can load the app in the browser, choose from our template gallery, make something, save your progress in local storage, sync your saved projects to the server, and export finished product as zip.
- Technical requirements:
- Simple Djangoo web app with authentication (BroswerID)
- Storage of JSON blobs in a database
- The ability to run a simple server that tells the template loader window what templates are available in our "popcorn-maker-templates" repo. This way, we can easily offer more templates without touching the app.
PRE-RELEASE
January 30th
- What we're offering: All the above, with the option of hosting your media files and hosting your finished projects. The beginnings of a Wordpress.org style innovation community around open video.
- Technical requirements:
- Hosting finished projects
- Encoding and hosting media files (Probably using third party Zencoder + S3 solution, unless we want to take this on)
- More robust template directory
