Nadine environment, trial

[Allo Brogica]

Hey guys, 

I'm looking at testing out Nadine for a new coworking community space. I had a couple questions. 

1. What is the environment you develop/operate on (osx, debian, etc). 

2. Is there an-to-date version demo available online to see the functionality/etc before I go through the effort of getting things all setup/installing, etc. The one video is from a couple years ago. It'd be great if I could see a live demo if available.

Thanks.

Allo,

The platform is Django which runs on many different operating systems and web servers.  At Office Nomads we run it on a linux box through apache using a postgres database.  Installation would be pretty straight forward to anyone who knows how to install apache applications.  There isn't really a way to get around needing a technical person since you will need someone to keep things up and running and make any customizations.

We don't currently have a demo site and you are correct about the screencast being out of date.  Since we are a coworking space and not a software company we set our priorities differently then if we were promoting this as a product.  I don't have extra time to maintain an online demo or update the screencast for example.  But at the same time we continue to improve the system and love collaborating with others on the development.  If you are interested in contributing, perhaps you could take on maintaining a demo site, or producing some screen shots for the website.  There are lots of ways this could work out.

Thanks Jacob, 

I'm not sure what the specific requirements are, but I think this project would qualify to have an online hosted demo at http://www.opensourcecms.com/ . I know I've relied on testing out demos at that site for years.

I was curious which flavor of linux so that we could be as similar to what you are running. Though we might wind up running it on a mac anyway. While not a developer, I've been in tech for a long time. Though I haven't used Django before. 

Is there any list of features you've added to it since the screencast? I'm new to coworking spaces so am just still getting my hands around what are requirements even are. 

Thanks for all your efforts! Cheers.

We use Ubuntu 12.04 although anything should work pretty equally.  

The main features to be added since that screencast was done is integration of our member email list and our payment gateway.  It also handles some routine tasks that could be automated.
