New project ideas

To get started review our page on how to Contribute. Then explore our suggestions forum and our new bug tracker (features suggested).

From a more general perspective, Amahi is a platform that will support the deployment of other open source applications. If you are interested in pre-packaging applications for "one-click" deployment just contact us with your areas of interest and we can suggest some specific applications to investigate (or suggest your own.)

Of course there are other ideas. Here's a sample (we are ready to work with students to define a suitable project for their skills):

Hard:

• integrated UPnP control of home routers from within Amahi platform
• robust user control API to support AmMahi management beyond a browser interface (eg. LCD-touch screen, flash based, iPhone, etc.)
• port Amahi to deploy on a Ubuntu/Android/Moblin/other(?) based distribution (currently Fedora based)

Medium:

• development of Amahi.org to support application gallery functionality (including search, user feedback, application ratings, etc.)

Easy:

• integrated firewall/parental controls in the platform

Plus, of course we are open to suggestions. Open a dialog. We're happy to discuss and determine a suitable project.
