Content
The new fanart.tv site is currently under heavy development, we are hoping at launch to have a bunch of new content we can start drip feeding out over the launch month, Kodi is one of our biggest users (around 60 million hits to the API a month), so I thought I'd post on here to see if any of the Kodi community would be interested in contributing content to the site.
It could be movie reviews, tv show reviews, music artist featurettes, but in particular we would like some content promoting Kodi, so articles about Kodi, news about Kodi, tutorials on setting up Kodi, Guides on setting up Kodi on a Raspberry pi, basically anything movie / tv / music / tech related that our users would find interesting.
By launch we would like to have 40 - 60 articles ready to go so we can put out 1-2 articles a day and give us some breathing room to get new content.
Translations
Another area we are looking for help is with translations, the new site will be multi-lingual from the get go, we are pretty well covererd for spanish (have had 3 people request to help with the spanish translations), but anything else we need help with.
Developers
We are also looking for developers interested in helping out with the site, if you would like to help us bring this project to life (there is still a lot to do), then get in touch with us!
The new site is being built with the following technologies - Laravel 5.2, Postgre 9.5 (though this isn't set in concrete at the moment), jQuery and SASS, so if you have have any experience with these, or think you can bring something else to the table then we should definitely talk!
In addition, if you have experience maintaining networks, linux, dedicated servers, virtual servers, load balancing, SQL, backups, amazon s3, elasticsearch or vanilla forums we would love to hear from you as well.
Get in touch
The easiest way to have a conversation about all this is if you pop on to our IRC channel #fanart.tv on freenode, but you can also message me on here and I can give you gtalk/hangouts/email info.
