This is a prototype of a service to allow people to eat with people nearby, steared by a map-view. It is designed to be integrated in the flow of social-media apps as well as being used as an independant web-site or in other contexts for different purposes (read: it is very modular due to a functional design with Clojure and Pedestal in particular). The prototype is still simple and not yet ready for any end-users.

WeFeedUs is the bootstrapping application of a general open-source and open-data community around open web-development. We are trying to build a community around open-source to finally open up data (after all, data is more important than the code that runs on it) and allow to cooperatively compute on it with distributed applications like this. The general purpose is to make people literate in programming by allowing them to tap their own data. While this service currently uses Datomic in its free-as-in-beer version, work is done towards a free software, distributed version control system for data on the web with geschichte. Due to the "high-level", functional design of Datomic, it should be fairly easy to replace it once the application data stabilizes.

Application data will be released under an open license and development will be aligned around strong copyleft products. If you are interested, ping me.

The client-side (browser) part can be found here.

Run lein run to start the websocket service.

The service wires web-sockets to Datomic atm., but doesn't yet do much except storing markers.
