| Project description: | |
| -------------------- | |
| Skalli's objective is to build an extensible portal for providing, collecting and accessing | |
| information about projects run by an organization. | |
| Large software companies and open source foundries like the Eclipse Foundation often struggle | |
| with an ever growing amount of projects to keep an eye on. Developers, users and potential | |
| contributors have a hard time finding information about projects, get access to development | |
| resources like source code, available downloads and documentation, or just get in contact | |
| with project members. Even worse, quite often development landscapes are heterogeneous with | |
| a variety of tools and services that are not at all or only loosly integrated with each other. | |
| In such a situation one needs a "spider" in the centre of the net that knows about the various | |
| bits and pieces and links them together: Skalli. | |
| Skalli does not aim at replacing existing tools like wikis, bug trackers or source code | |
| management systems. Instead it merely links to existing tools and services in order to let | |
| users know what a project is about and where its resources are located. Each project has a | |
| landing page, where all the available information is presented - and the same information is | |
| also accessible through REST to facilitate an ecosystem of additional, loosly coupled tools. | |
| Skalli is highly extensible by leaveraging OSGi technology. Skalli's project model, user | |
| interface and services can be amended easily and transparently. Clients and self services for | |
| additional tools not supported out-of-the box by Skalli can be added as additional bundles. | |
