Dear All,

I am interested in setting up beacon in my country. What is the best material to start with in
order to implement beacon.

Thanks,
musa

Hi, I just came across this website that provides three approaches of lighting a beacon, here's the link:https://github.com/ga4gh-beacon/specification/wiki/How-to-light-a-Beacon

And these are the methods from the above website.

If you are a data steward, please consider lighting a Beacon. There are three options of varying complexity for lighting beacons:

  • From scratch (hardest): develop a Beacon compliant with the specification(s) in the schemas directory of this repository
  • Reference impementation (easier): use a free to download and install implementation of Beacon, which you host on your network or on a cloud instance you own
  • Managed solutions (easiest): use an implementation of Beacon that is implemented and maintained by a third-party
Hope this helps!
