If I could choose one app I'd love to see on sandstorm, I'd choose https://github.com/cantino/huginn https://github.com/cantino/huginn
Or to generalize just a bit, any good app in the category of "automate all the things". With the recent demise of yahoo pipes, I'm not even sure there is a decent hosted service available in this category anymore, unless IFTTT meets your needs.
I think there's likely a lot of overlap between "people who want their own server" and "people who want to set up automations tying together their various devices and services".
I think Sandstorm sits in the sweet spot between "people who are not only professional engineers but also want to spend the time and effort to maintain a personal server" and "people who don't understand technology and/or will just use what their peers use". Power users, basically.
So yeah. Huginn :)
- kentonv 11y agoI agree! We plan to port Huginn just as soon as we have the infrastructure in place so that it is able to request permission to talk to the various external servers that it wants to talk to -- which will be pretty soon now. :)
- charlieok 11y agoThat was exactly the question I wanted to ask about sandstorm's capabilities. Glad to read this :)
