Project: API-Data-Aggregator

Scope

• general focus: low code (no code) - achieve tasks without actually having the need to write source code
• providing the ability to integrate and use external data endpoints (match results, stock market, weather data, Mastodon, Twitter, RSS, …)
• JSON, XML, GraphQL, SparQL, …
• querying/filtering data
• mapping results to internal variables
• using the data in custom templates and components
• semi-automated caching strategy (either auto-detected or configured to “5 minutes”)

Start (suggestion)

• start with integrating & rendering the list of matches & results of one sports club
• lets start creating an abstraction from that
• what is variable? what can be configured?
• concepts, model, backend module, lit-elements
• aspects:
  • mapping to local Fluid variables
  • creating a local service endpoint - which could be used by Vue, React, Angular frontend apps
