This is a Rails app that helps RailsBridge workshop organizers plan their events. We also use it as a teaching tool and an open-source community testbed.
The feature set is currently pretty minimal - definitely pre-alpha. Eventually, we'd like to fill out the organizer feature set, as well as incorporate ways for organizers follow up with students and volunteers.
Please join the google group and send a quick note introducing yourself.
Then, have a look at our Tracker project. Pick a story to work on, fork the project, and then make your changes and send a pull request. Note: change git clone below to be your repo.
You'll need rvm. We're using Ruby 1.9.2, and there's an .rvmrc file which should help make sure you are using the right Ruby version.
git clone [email protected]:railsbridge/bridge_troll

Note: we're using sass, so if you need to change stylesheets, you can make them automatically re-compile if you keep this running in another terminal window:
sass --watch public/stylesheets/sass/ public/stylesheets/
