Large Project List

These are the really big things we'd like to work on in the next few years. Some are already underway. Others may not start for a year or more.

REST API with DRF

This will use Django Rest Framework 2.x and start out with a basic read-only API for accessing the same public data that is provided in the SQL dumps.

UI Revamp

The UI needs a revamp. The my.comics.org project is already using Bootstrap for the UI, and we are investigating to do the same with the main site. Other front-end technologies may be endorsed as well as we flesh out this project.
