** Support for text based?
** Support for other platforms? Slack, Discord, ???
** Serverless or with a backend? Do you want accounts, publishing, etc, or p2p with some kind of WebRTC style networked system?
** Publishing of final product into different formats? e.g., [https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor.js]

=== 5. Seneca Student Personal GitHub Dashboard ===
New project to create a web-based GitHub Dashboard suitable for Seneca students doing open source. Some ideas:

* Lots of GitHub dashboards already exist that might do some of what we want.
* Even more web dashboard components and projects we could use
* GitHub API allows for querying data easily
