The Web Wins (TWW)

Everything we do is for the web, because the web is awesome. But we want more.

Hi, we are

Candlestick Logo

A group of random strangers from the interwebs creating the next gen API to close the gap between different kinds of devices and a web app to control all of them at the same time.

@CandlestickIO


What does that mean?

Creating a unified way to control all the devices you want with one single master pc through a REST API and a visual UI in the browser of your choice.

Devices?

  • Sensor (Motion, Temperature, Brightness, Loudness)
  • Image Projector
  • LED
  • NFC
  • Kinect
  • Webcams
  • Audio Systems
  • Mobile Devices (Websockets + NFC)

Do you have any sketches?

:hover / click the images to see comments:

Some examples, please?

  • Change the projection based on detected people in the room using kinect
  • Play music, show the name of the artist, create visuals based on the music and use the led to flash like it's in a club or concert
  • Picking one person in the room via webcam / kinect and playing a game with this person
  • Use connected mobile devices from the people in the room to vote for changes in the UI (WebSockets + NFC)

And how can you implement that?

We are using the latest web shizzle to create an army before the Winter comes!

  • Frontend: Angular or React
  • Middleware: Node.js (Express, socket.io, Mongoose)
  • Database: MongoDB
  • Connected Workers (local private WiFi): Node.js
  • Build: Grunt
  • Unit-Tests: Jasmine

Why are you doing this?

We want to win the $25k from Google DevArt and make this project real.

Teamstatus?

We are currently looking for

  • Node.js masterminds
  • CSS 3D / Canvas / WebGL pros
  • Game developer
  • SCSS gurus to create a region / shapes / flexbox powered frontend for the offical page candlestick.io

-> Open an issue and use the label heyMyNameIs.

  • Who are you?
  • What are you doing now?
  • Why do you love the web?
  • What are your 3 favorite technologies to develop for the web?
  • What do you want to contribute to TWW?
  • Give us 3+ ideas how you would use TWW to create which visual effect? (Bonus)

Don't forget to give us all the social links you want to share. (Bonus)
