Hackathon status shown in Panic Status Board!
We are holding a hackathon where there are bunch of projects. We want to build something that helps the participants to find how well they are doing and how the other teams are doing. Then @zhf found the app called Status Board developed by panic.com. And we decided to build a service that conforms the protocol, so our projects' status can be tracked && displayed in that app.
The whole project is nothing more than a web service entry. By accessing the url, you can get the latestest data on those projects.
The project is powered by sinatra, a lightweight web framework that does the weight-lift for you, so you can focus on the web logic.
Here's a working version of this api here. Basically, this repo summarizes the commit info of the repo.
The working version can be found here, this partial html is used to be displayed by Status Board.
