Karrot Dev TWA

Foodsaving समूहों के लिए स्वतंत्र और खुला स्रोत पिक आयोजक

Foodsaving: The act of making food that was already intended to be thrown into the bin available for human consumption again.

This can be done most efficiently through cooperations whith stores. The foodsavers and the store agree on clear times at which food can be picked up free of charge. The saved food will then be distributed to people who can make use of it.

To make the lives of foodsavers as easy as possible Karrot provides many functionalities for pickup organization, such as:

- push notifications

- group wall

- private messaging

- store pages with description and location

- map to display store locations

- one-time or recurring pickup dates

- individual number of slots for each pickup

- pickup chats

- full translation support via transifex

- activity history for full transparency

- pickup feedback option

- application process for potential group members

- approval system for new group members

- community forum activity notifier

Karrot is in active development and thus constantly improved. It does not incorporate standard admin roles but will find progressive ways of automatically adjusting hierarchies that reflect a group's actual responsibility structure. We already took the first steps in this direction with the application and approval systems, but it's far from being finished.
