platform

This is the platform that powers OpenUnited. Apps are used to create "bounded contexts":

  • Product Management (Product, Capability, Initiative, Challenge, Bounty etc.)
  • Talent (Person, Skill, BountyClaim etc.)
  • Commerce (Organisation, Points & Payments etc.)
  • Engagement (Notifications etc.)

This repo contains the full platform including the frontend - which is "deliberately simple"*. We prototype and specify the target UX, as code, in the UX Prototype repo. The UX Prototype repo is not for production use, we use it instead of using Figma.

* Our "deliberately simple" frontend means that we use Jinja templates, TailwindCSS, TailwindUI, Hyperscript, plain javascript where needed, and HTMX where it improves the UX. Earlier we had a separate ReactJS frontend and a GraphQL API layer, however such fanciness failed to deliver the expected value, whilst creating complexity/friction... Therefore, we now have a deliberately simple frontend. As a result, we have about 50% less code and move way faster.
