How does the garden work?

The Maslow community garden is a place for community driven open source designs to live.

The garden is different from other design sharing sites in three ways.

Discussion

To encourage discussion each project is automatically linked to a topic in the Maslow forums. GitHub provides each project with a wiki, issue tracking, and community management tools.

Repositories

Instead of having static files controlled by a single project creator, the garden stores files in GitHub repositories making it possible for the community to collaborate, contribute, and maintain a projects design files.

Distributed

Each project is self contained. The community garden website is automatically regenerated every 5 minutes from a list of tracked projects. This means that there is no central organization responsible for ownership of design files.
