The initial (NodeJS) version of mapview first came to life on July 29, 2013 -- a year and some months ago. This Haskell rewrite happened in January of this year.
Though it hasn't been tested in practice yet (due to balloon launch failures), I believe it is at the stage where we should begin looking at what we can do to turn it into a system that other clubs can take advantage of for their own launches. Among other things, this means getting it into a state where we can ship it to Hackage and perhaps a Fedora Copr/Ubuntu PPA.
Here is what I see needing to happen for this to pan out:
We need a landing site that explains:
An overview of the pieces of the system. The readme does this right now but is somewhat technical.
Information on installing the system
Information on setting up the mapview-psc frontend
Screenshots of mapview-psc
Misc. code cleanup
Perhaps split some pieces into separate modules.
Making use of lens-aeson
Making it easy for clubs to edit the parser (even though it requires a recompile)
Un-hardcode anything specific to our launches, if possible. Some stuff (e.g. parser) won't be possible.
Really clear install instructions
This is crucial, I think. We have a ton of dependencies. I don't see us giving up many of them, but at minimum we need to at least explain in detail how to install them all and set things up.
Explain how to deploy mapview-psc
Firewall gotchas between mapview-psc clients and mapview-send
Make sure mapview-psc works well on mobile.
Maybe develop a mobile app in addition, but this is way down the road.
It could do like the Google Sky Map and Satellite AR apps do and let you hold up your phone and have it show you, based on coordinates and look-angle, exactly where you should be looking. I suspect @kg4sgp would like that.
