Helping co-workers recognize their noteworthiness

kudogen is an app that helps co-workers, particularly those spread across disparate locations recognize each other and have a few laughs. About ...

  • their successes and suckcesses,
  • their brilliance and bone-headedness,
  • and their ah-sweet's and oh-shit's

My team, spread across both hemispheres, meets once a week to catch up. We intend to use kudogen to nominate each other for "awards". Some you're happy to be nominated for, others ... not so much.

Implementation

I'm currently still building the basic functionality, and will keep this readme updated accordingly. The plan is to host a ASP.NET Web API endpoint in Microsoft Azure and use AngularJS and BreezeJS for the frontend. More on this as it develops.

Round 2

Initially I was going to use Azure Mobile Services since there will likely be mobile apps to consume the API down the road, but reconsidered. It's still around in the initial-approach branch (the readme has more rationale), but I didn't get too far before changing my minds. Don't get me wrong, I like Azure Mobile Services and use it on other projects. I just decided not to use it on this one ... yet.
