GoodApp

GoodApp is a cloud environment for the development of applications that are socially responsible, open and transparent.

How might communities use it?
It supports the creation of civic apps targeted at specific communities through the use of this shared infrastructure. This infrastructure includes development tools hosted in the cloud and hosted application deployment. At the same time it promotes a number of goal features: transparency, sharability, education and openness programmatically.

At what stage of development is it?
GoodApp is in the proposal/development stage but with a working prototype that is the engine behind Center projects Webcomix and Hero Reports.

In the short term, we plan to complete the infrastructure with regard to version control and initial libraries while deploying existing applications on the infrastructure. In the long term, we will focus on developing shared libraries, developing case studies from new users, and introducing it to a larger application development community.
