Amazee

Project/alliance:
Projects are the central part and asset of the Amazee community. Therefore the project module is an important piece that brings together lots of pieces: other modules like the magazine, discussion, writeboard, members, polls, and to dos are aggregated by it.

Project magazine:
Example Amazee project magazineThe project magazine is a mix of various libraries. The Yahoo-JavaScript-Library allows us to make the drag and drop features that can be seen in the ‘Configure magazine’ mode. The ‘project magazine framework’ allows us to rapidly implement new widgets. The blog and text/video widget for example is purely based on CCK hooking into the project magazine. The RSS feed module is based on the aggregator hooking into the project magazine.
Adding new project magazine widgets reduces the development in handling the business logic accessing on CCK nodes or custom tables.

Webwidget:
To help Amazee users spread the word about themselves and their projects we created a module that takes content from Drupal and creates little JavaScript badges that can be integrated in blogs and websites. The badges are dynamic so if there are changes in the content on Amazee the badge is automatically updated as well.
