For developers and students

Tech challenges, ready to pick up.

Real problems people have written down in open-source issue trackers, developer threads and the gaps in public data. Every one is sourced, has a brief and a builder's kit, and is sized so a first version fits a weekend, a few weeks or a semester.

    Developers can't get a working, machine-readable list of current boil water advisories in Newfoundland and Labrador.

    Solved looks like

    A public CSV, JSON and RSS feed of current advisories (community, water system, date issued, reason), updated daily by a scheduled job from the portal's report, keeping each day's snapshot so advisory lengths can be worked out. Checked against the portal's report on 10 different days.
