Indie Web ProjectsA list of projects supporting or being actively used to create the Indie Web by IndieWebCamp attendees. Split into production, experimental, hacks, and explorations as well as other for projects that are or appear to be IndieWeb related but are either not in use by any attendee or status is unknown. productionProduction = the software fully launched and good enough for other independents to easily install, use, maintain, depend on. WordPressmain article: WordPress WordPress is web software you can use to create a beautiful website or blog. Attendees that are using it on their own site:
OpenVBX/TropoVBXSelf-hosted phone numbers! Attendees that are using it:
experimentalStuff that you've at least got running on your own site, but is perhaps not stable/reliable enough for general sharing / use by others. Still useful to document what you *do* have running and use, share some of the code/design/UX, and lessons learned. DiSo Actionstream for WordPressDiSo Actionstream for WordPress enables syndication of content from other sites to your own or writing a bit of code to insert local items. This powers both the full actionstream at singpolyma.net and also the self-hosted microblog at µ.singpolyma.net Attendees that are using it on their own site:
FalconFalcon is a personal publishing (tweeting, blogging, realtime syndicating) web application. There is an instance of Falcon running at tantek.com and serving/syndicating blog and tweet content. Attendees that are using it on their own site:
glowglow supports integrations with Twitter and Facebook and a complete stack of federated social web protocols and standards (activitystrea.ms, poco, pubsubhubub, salmon, etc). Glow is currently limited to glow.io subdomains if you want to try it out. At some point it will likely be opened it up to any host/domain. Attendees that are using it on their own site:

IRC Aaron Parecki uses a private IRC server with several channels as a personal communications hub. This project has no specific name, and has no single code base, and is highly experimental. However, he has been using and developing it for almost three years. The bot in the IRC channel can control lights in the house, do text to speech on computers inside the house, shows Twitter mentions and wiki edits, do unit conversion and other calculations, manage a "todo" list, and sometimes makes snarky remarks. Its modular structure has made it extremely easy to quickly add new functionality, and as such, has probably slowed Aaron's development on other more accessible web-based equivalents. Social Igniter Social Igniter aims to be a lightweight, simple to setup, easy to extend, social content management system. What do you mean social CMS? We hope to make the task of managing / creating content more fun and social-like by using the aspects of social networks people have come to love. Get the code on Github.

IndieAuth / RelMeAuth IndieAuth is a way to use your own domain name to sign in to websites. It works by linking your website to one or more authentication providers such as Twitter or Google, then entering your domain name in the login form on websites that support it.
Homesteading on the IndieWebhacksStuff that you've hacked on, perhaps you intend to run on your own site, or just sometimes run on your own site (i.e. for testing rather than as a part of your day-to-day real world usage), or in development plugins. We hope to see stuff here migrate up to experimental! Smallest Federated Wiki
IndieWeb MessagingGoal: Be able to send someone a short message only knowing their domain name. They should be able to receive the message in whatever way they want (SMS, Email, Twitter DM, etc) without the sender knowing what medium the message will be sent through.
Current live implementations: explorationsThese aren't even experiments yet - more like concepts in progress and being developed
Related explorations: otherOStatus for WordPressOStatus for WordPress is a collection of plugins to make WordPress blogs followable by status.net and other OStatus instances. No attendees are using it on their own site. If we could get indie web participation by some folks using OStatus, it would be great to understand how well it works today. |
