Personal Statement From the Lead Developer
With a heavy heart, I announce that due to failed contract negotiations, most of the Taipei Urban Intelligence Center team, including myself, will be leaving in a few days. This will be one of my last updates.
This project began not by order but from one engineer's imagination. I joined TUIC in April 2023 and took over the outdated Taipei City Dashboard 1.0. Unlike typical government contractors who settle for passable work, I aimed for excellence. Quietly, I redesigned and rewrote the entire platform. When I showcased my work, my superiors quickly embraced it to promote open-source governance and the Taipei Codefest Hackathon.
With a small team of five, we created a valuable asset: Taiwan's first fully open-source government platform, admired by companies and other governments.
Sadly, this project might soon be handled by a large contractor who may not maintain our standards. Still, I wish my successors the best and hope our spirit endures so Taipei City Dashboard can continue to thrive.
Thank you to everyone who supported me over the past year.
Till we meet again,
Igor
