It’s kind of fun “watching” the Known publishing platform grow – and growing it is… each and every day in terms of new features and functions. Known, as you may recall from my recent post, is a new publishing platform available in either a hosted platform (withknown.com) or as software you can install on your own server. Last week I wrote about why Known and the “Indie Web” are so incredibly important.
But the cool part about Known is that like most open source projects it has an open issue tracker… in this case Known uses Github. The overall Github account is https://github.com/idno (“idno” was the original name of the project before they changed it to “Known”) and you can find repositories there for the main Known source code (/idno) as well as various plugins that work with Known, themes and other materials.
But it is the “issues” that I find most interesting. If you go to:
You’ll see all the currently open issues along with the ensuing discussion. Perhaps more interestingly you can see the closed issues at:
https://github.com/idno/idno/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aclosed
to see all the great work the Known development team has been doing.
Being a Github user, I have “watched” the idno repository and chosen to receive email notifications when there are new issues or new posts about issues.
The result has been a fascinating glimpse into the development process of the team… and it’s just been fun to watch how they continue to build more functionality into the platform. Great to see!
