Community projects

Bigger than one request. A list of what it needs, filled by the island.

A project is a page with a needs list: six volunteers, two wheelbarrows, someone with a drone licence. People put their name against a line. The organiser confirms each name before it counts, and marks the project finished after it has happened.

How a project works

1

Write the list

Name what it needs, one line each, with a number. Six volunteers. Two wheelbarrows. Someone who has pruned an apple tree before. The list is the whole project.

2

The island fills it

People put their name against a line, which opens a conversation with you. You confirm each name before it counts, so the list only ever says what is true.

3

Mark it finished

When every line is full the page says so. After the day has happened you mark it finished, and it moves to the list below with a sentence about how it went.

Start a project

Write the list, and let the island fill it

You name what it needs, in lines. Each line has a number. As people say yes, the line fills. When it is full, the line closes and nobody is asked twice.
