Project Link aims to be your own, personal user agent for the smart home, creating a web of things that is completely yours. Instead of entrusting your data to a third party, your Link agent understands your preferences for how you want to interact with the world of devices in your home, and can even automate your connected world for you. All of this still done conveniently and securely, but completely under your control.
If you would like to participate, you can get in touch with our connected devices participation team, or find us on irc.mozilla.org, channel #foxlink.
Project overview
Project Link (formerly Foxlink) is a short-term experiment to build a software building block that can interact with various devices. Most code is done in Rust.
Participation
Project Link is at a very early stage and we are still figuring out many thing, including how to best accept contributions. But don't let this deter you!
The core of Project Link is developed in Rust. The front-end is developed in HTML5/JS using REST/WebSocket.
Help Wanted
We maintain lists of issues for which we are looking for help.
- Help Wanted.
- Help Wanted... in Rust.
- Help Wanted... in HTML5/JS .
- Help Wanted... coming up with use cases and stories
We also maintain a full, unclassified, list of ongoing issues. If you wish to help, don't hesitate to look at them, but they may not be as easy or as detailed:
And all our source code may be found on GitHub repositories.
Getting in touch
The best way to get in touch with us is to come and chat through irc. We can be found on channel #foxlink of irc.mozilla.org.
We should have a public mailing-list available within a few days.
If you wish to file a bug, please visit our GitHub repositories and file an issue.
We are planning to offer a communication channel to suggest featuers, improvements or radical new directions. We will post details once we are satisfied with the mechanics.
Development process
Repositories
All code is open source and hosted Please file bugs on Github issues for these repositories.
IRC
You can find us on irc.mozilla.org, channel #foxlink.
Methodology
We are using some agile practices:
- "Stand-up" meetings happen on etherpad and on IRC every weekday between 5pm and 5:15pm UTC.
- Weekly meetings happen in Vidyo and on etherpad every monday between 5pm and 6pm UTC.
References
Very early documentation:
- Straw-man PoC description on etherpad
- Google Drive folder (everything is behind closed doors so far but we're working on opening this up.)
