Kendraio FundOSS

Throw between two and five dollars to Kendraio today and we'll end up receiving up to an extra $20 in matched funding! FundOSS is a new system for fundraising open source software that rewards projects based on the size of their community rather than the amounts they raise.

So the multiples on the matched funding are bigger for the smaller the amount donated. Hence $2 gives the greatest multiplier! You need to have a GitHub account to donate. But that's easy to get.

Head to https://fundoss.org/collective/kendraio and donate a few dollars! And then tell your friends, family, and loved ones!

$500 USD developer bounty!

Who? Fullstack JavaScript developer
When? Anytime from now
What? Integrating the open-source music information encyclopedia MusicBrainz within Kendraio Player, a proof-of-concept for a multi-service player for music streaming using web monetisation technology.

We want to give $500 to whoever can create an interface where you can look up as well as upload information to MusicBrainz via Kendraio Player in Kendraio App. We want users to be able to use Kendraio Player to display and also upload information to and from MusicBrainz.

Kendraio App is a general framework for creating low-code applications. Kendraio App was originally created to service the creative/music industry to enable easy asset and rights management both locally and on third-party platforms. But what we've ended up creating is a generic data browser that plugs into remote APIs and enables highly configurable low-code interfaces to be built. As part of our project for Grant for the Web, we developed Kendraio Player, an end-to-end reimagining of the interactions between streaming services, artists and consumers and how we can monetise music on the web to create the healthier, more open and fair internet that Grant for the Web strives to see built. MusicBrainz is an open-source, community-led music encyclopedia.

If all tasks have been completed after the mutually agreed-upon time frame, you will receive a $500 reward! This bounty is proposal-based, so have a look and submit your proposal here:

Kendraio App MusicBrainz integration (bounty) #184

dahacouk posted on Apr 27, 2021

Our second bounty is to integrate the open-source music encyclopedia MusicBrainz into Kendraio App. Kendraio App is our low-code 'data browser' application. Within Kendraio App we've built Kendraio Player, a proof-of-concept for a multi-service music streaming player using web monetisation technology, funded by Grant for the Web towards their mission to create a healthier internet.

We want this integration to enable Kendraio App users to search and browse, and also upload information to MusicBrainz. To participate, we would like talented full-stack JavaScript developers to propose how they would integrate MusicBrainz with Kendraio App.

Timeframe: 2 weeks
Bounty: $500 USD (paid out via https://opencollective.com/kendraio -- so you need to have an account here to be paid)

We're rewarding the individual (or group) that carries out this bounty in a transparent, interoperable, and easy to use way.

See how our first bounty went at Kendraio Player Audiotarky integration. And see Radhy's writeup of his experience at Afterthought on integrating Audiotarky API into Kendraio App.

Deliverables

A proposal written out before work starts and agreed upon beforehand in our Google Drive.
Interfaces created in Kendraio App using Flows where a user can:
- Look up information about a particular MusicBrainz entity ("give me info about The Beatles")
- Browse MusicBrainz to find entities connected to a particular entity ("show me all releases by The Beatles")
- Search for entities matching a specific query ("show me all artists matching the query 'Beatles'").
Interfaces created in Kendraio App using Flows where a user (artist) can:
- Upload information about a specific music release to MusicBrainz via Kendraio App.

Once a candidate has put themselves forward, our Kendraio developers will mentor them exclusively for 2 weeks (or more, by mutual agreement). If after the agreed-upon period tasks remain open, another candidate may be given the opportunity instead.

About Kendraio

Kendraio App is a general framework for creating low-code applications. Kendraio App was originally created to service the creative/music industry to enable easy asset and rights management both locally and on third-party platforms. But what we've ended up creating is a generic data browser that plugs into remote APIs and enables highly configurable low-code interfaces to be built. And we'll use this framework as the basis of this project. Please check out these links before accepting this mission: Kendraio App demo, Kendraio App on GitHub, Kendraio App documentation, Kendraio App website. As you create this project your feedback will influence the direction and capabilities of the Kendraio framework.

The Kendraio App lets users build interfaces from blocks. The blocks themselves are plumbed together with modern JavaScript, TypeScript, and are configured using JSON. We have various backend APIs, and proxy endpoints hosted using Vercel's serverless platform.

What? Integrating fair streaming platform, Audiotarky, within Kendraio Player – a proof-of-concept media player interface for aggregating and streaming multiple services, incorporating web monetisation technology, built within Kendraio App.

Kendraio App is a general framework for creating low-code applications. Kendraio App was originally created to service the creative/music industry to enable easy asset and rights management both locally and on third-party platforms. But what we've ended up creating is a generic data browser that plugs into remote APIs and enables highly configurable low-code interfaces to be built. As part of our project for Grant for the Web, we developed Kendraio Player, an end-to-end reimagining of the interactions between streaming services, artists and consumers and how we can monetise music on the web to create the healthier, more open and fair internet that Grant for the Web strives to see built. Audiotarky are building a "new music streaming platform, that puts privacy and fairness in front of algorithms and shareholders".

We have an existing audio player that supports Web Monetization with Coil login - with or without a browser extension - but not yet with Audiotarky. Candidates should have some existing experience with Javascript and web API’s. Your task will be to enable a user to retrieve artist and track metadata from Audiotarky’s API using a Kendraio Flow. Bonus points for enabling an artist to import tracks to Audiotarky including payment pointers using Kendraio App.

Kendraio Player Audiotarky integration (bounty) #169

dahacouk posted on Mar 04, 2021

We're kicking off our first of four bounty programmes in collaboration with Simon Metson from Audiotarky. Audiotarky is one of our partners in our project, Kendraio Pay, funded by Grant for the Web. Grant for the Web is founded on the belief that a healthy internet needs openness and opportunity. It's a fund by Coil, Mozilla and Creative Commons, supporting an open, fair, and inclusive standard for monetising content on the web. In this bounty, we're exploring how rights management and payments operate when working with multiple DSPs.

The bounty

Timeframe: 2 weeks
Bounty: $500 USD

For this bounty, we're rewarding the individual (or group) that carries out the tasks below, in a way that is transparent, interoperable, and easy to use.

We have an existing audio player that supports Web Monetization with Coil login - with or without a browser extension - but not yet with Audiotarky. Candidates should have some existing experience with Javascript and web API's. Once a candidate has put themselves forward, our Kendraio developers can work with them exclusively for 2 weeks (or more by mutual agreement). After the agreed period if tasks remain, another candidate may be given the opportunity instead.

Tasks

Enabling a user to retrieve artist and track metadata from Audiotarky's API using a Kendraio Flow.
Enabling a user to play Audiotarky tracks within Kendraio Player, alongside existing DSP1 tracks.
Bonus points for enabling an artist to import tracks to Audiotarky including payment pointers using Kendraio App.

We will be very flexible with any hiccups that may occur and we will hold your hand all the way. We don't like stress here at Kendraio. We just want to see people enjoying building with Kendraio App.

Technical details

We have a technical blog post that provides background and demonstrates a simple Flow using the Kendraio Player block with the "Web Money" block. The more advanced Kendraio Player uses GraphQL to load a track list and artist payment pointers from DSP1.

Source code

Audiotarky API

Audiotarky data is available through a simple API. Currently this is not "discoverable"; you need to know the artist stub ID to find their work. There will be a genre API ~soon.

Discover artists API: https://www.audiotarky.com/$/artists/index.json
Discover albums API: https://www.audiotarky.com/$/albums/index.json
Artist details: https://www.audiotarky.com/$/artists/chris-foster/index.json
Album details: https://www.audiotarky.com/$/artists/chris-foster/hadelin/index.json
Track details: https://www.audiotarky.com/$/artists/chris-foster/hadelin/the-seeds-of-love/index.json

Evaluation

The bounty will be evaluated by the Kendraio Team and advisors.
Evaluation will be based on the completion of the task, as well as on how transparent, interoperable and easy to use it is.
The more you can commit to documenting and talking about your experience with Kendraio App the more excited we will be to work with you.

Kendraio Player

Kendraio Player is a media player incorporating Coil's implementation of Web Monetization and funded by Grant for the Web. The player was built in Kendraio App. Kendraio App is a low-code dashboard creator that helps build interfaces using Flows that connect to APIs with minimal code needed. The App has an audio player block (Kendraio Player) that supports Web Monetization, using either Coil's browser extension or login API -- but it is not yet integrated with the Audiotarky streaming service.

The Kendraio App let's users build interfaces from blocks. The blocks themselves are plumbed together with modern Javascript, Typescript, and are configured using JSON. We have various backend APIs, and proxy endpoints hosted using Vercel's serverless platform.

Requirements

Candidates should have some existing experience with Javascript and web APIs. Must be willing to document and talk about their experience of working on the tasks in this bounty.

Process

Once a candidate has put themselves forward, our Kendraio developers will mentor them exclusively for 2 weeks (or more, by mutual agreement). If after the agreed upon period tasks remain open, another candidate may be given the opportunity instead.
