Setting up a similar COVID info portal as COVID Pune for Ahmedabad

[Khush Vachhrajani]

Dear all, 

Hope you and your loved ones are well and healthy. 

Is there anyone in this community who is based in Ahmedabad and who is willing to work on a covid info portal for Ahmedabad on similar lines as COVID Pune?

Please respond to this email or ping me on whatsapp - 9426465070. I do not have the technical abilities to build a portal but happy to coordinate with a team of volunteers in best of my capacity. 

Thanks,

Khush

Dear Kush,

For technical aspects, could you get in touch with covid pune team? Most probably it's the same team who has set up https://covidnashik.com/ as well. Their technical team might have the bandwidth to set-up and maintain a similar portal for Ahmedabad.

I could not locate their contact phone number, but email is is mentioned on the portal: feed...@covidpune.com

Best, Ravikant

I would not want to clog their systems at this point.

In another thread on this group, this site has been shared:  https://stopcoronatn.github.io

Simple webpage (actually just a markdown readme), embedding a publish output of google docs. I'll recommend this approach.

Whether the doc is being updated automatedly or manually, bottom line is the google doc is v.easy to update.

You can fork it: https://github.com/stopcoronatn/stopcoronatn.github.io

Replace the iframe content and other links, and have it up for your side any time. Please name your repo as "something.github.io" - that way when you activate github pages in your repo's settings, it'll be directly deployed on "something.github.io" url.

Keeping aside the technicals, do you have the data and people to update it? That I feel needs to be the focus, and for that the other region's team can't help.

We can do the same for Bangalore. We have some volunteers who can update some data on regular basis daily. 

What is the format in which information is needed?

+1 to what Nikhil said. We are reusing the same template for https://covid-telangana.github.io/ repo: https://github.com/covid-telangana/covid-telangana.github.io

Hi Khush, 

Vensy Krishna (@vensykrishna) built https://hydcovidresources.com for Hyderabad using a no-code tool called Glide. It's been used by 50K people so far! 

She has offered to share the template and a playbook in a webinar tomorrow if you are interested in building the same for Ahmedabad. Sign up here: https://lu.ma/covid-app

More information about this app is here. 

Hope this helps! I'll be attending the webinar too! 

Stay safe, and take care!

Aparently, the team who built covidpue.com is scaling their work fast. They already have covered 6 cities/districts across India and more coming soon.  (some) deails at: https://covidpune.com/comingsoon

Kudos to them!
