This is the source code for the crowdsourced 3D printing website at www.wethebuilders.com.

epluribus is a Rails 6 app that was built at a hackathon and then in several random hacking sessions thereafter in order to support the specific projects on the We the Builders site. As such, it is pretty rough around the edges and contains much which is hard-coded or otherwise nasty.

Unfortunately, have no instructions for how to bootstrap your own site installation, nor do we have the resources to offer any support at this time.

epluribus was originally developed at the 2014 ArtBytes Hackathon at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, MD.

Our team is:

• Todd Blatt (concept, modeling, file and part wrangling, assembly)
• Marty McGuire (web dev, assembly)
• Jen Schachter (wordsmith, sculptor and organizer)
• David Fine (web dev)
• Matthew Griffin (concept, writing)
• Amy Hurst (UX)
• Ryan Kittleson (modeling poe and george slicer)
• Chris Preisinger (web dev)
• Corey Constantino (web dev)

You'll need:

• Rails 6
• A PostgreSQL database
• Amazon AWS credentials for S3
• Google App Engine credentials for Sign-in with Google
• SMTP configuration for sending emails (we use sendgrid.com)

Initially deployed on Heroku, we've since moved to deployed to Fly.io.
