Meeting Notes (2020 04 07)

• Potentially doing a virtual workshop instead of physical
  • Distributing a keybow, dedicating a day on a weekend.
• Goal to build out a website that is self-guided. For example, people buy a raspberry pi to do cool things with it and then go discover what people have done with it via the website.
• A good starting project that might be able to pull people into xebow would be a dynamically programmable macro tool that support IFTTT-like pipelines.
• Focus on a "project" that can be used to build applications (i.e. mix new xebow).
  • Hack away at new libraries.
  • Also able to be run from a new project w/o modifications for basic xebow usage (mix new xebow --with-examples).
    • 6 color animations
    • Basic macro support for emojis
    • Keyboard remapping
    • Key layering & chording
• Just discovered https://github.com/mrusme/kiwi
• OTP tutorial by using and running on xebow?
• Host↔xebow communication.
• Getting our APIs right
  • Thinking about how easy it would be for beginners to program certain behaviours:
    • Animations based off keypress
• Audiences
  • Javascript dev out of a code school
  • Rubyist who has heard good things about elixir and maybe dabbled
  • Arduino/raspberry pi crowd who want to use it as a gateway to other nerves development
