This is a simple meteor application made for Medieteknikdagarna 2015 (The Media Technology Days). It is used to give the lecture audience an easy way to ask the lecturers questions.
The stylesheets are written in Stylus, and I've tried to apply BEM and namespaced css as suggested in this article by Harry Roberts.
Download and install the application by running these commands:
git clone https://github.com/klaseskilson/mtd-live.git
cd mtd-live
meteor installTo get started, you need an Twitter application and its consumer and application
keys and secrets. You should then copy
settings.example.json into settings.json
and enter the Twitter credentials there.
When Twitter is setup, start the application by running meteor --settings settings.json in the
application's root folder.
Meteor is nice. It comes with built-in support for instant deployment. Basically, you run
meteor deploy example.com --settings settings.jsonand go to example.com in you browser once it's done. Read the tips provided in the Meteor Guide on how to deploy to Meteor Galaxy (which is without doubt the easiest method).
I'd recommend you change the super secure admin url in
lib/router.js before deploying.
The initial idea with this application was to provide the fair with a unified social media stream. It later evolved into being a tool for the lecture host. This todo list is not updated since.
- Add Instagram integration
- Make images appear nicely
- Make the twitter/instagram/whatever integration update automatically
- Move admin url config to config file
