Lightning talk by Sam (@spwoodcock)
- Sam talked about how ODK fits into HOT's workflow with Field Mapping Tasking Manager, and how they use it to coordinate field teams.
- How they are using Entities and their clever way of displaying icons using labels to indicate the status to the data collector: what's in progress , complete, , and failed .
- Sam's experience collaborating with the core team in designing and building the importing offline layers feature with @Nishon @Ivangayton. Check out his article to learn more!
ODK's product development process
- We covered our process for prioritization and what makes a good feature
- End-to-end process for building new features such as the counter widget and offline Entities
- Our goals and strategy for the next 6 months (our big focus is on Entities and offline support!)
Group discussion
- At the end of the call, Insiders got to ask the core team questions about Entities, navigation and pagination in Central, what challenging bugs the QA team have found and spicy questions like if ODK Web Forms will replace Collect.
