[11:21:21]<symbioquine[m]>I'm excited to hear folks' thoughts W.R.T. https://farmos.discourse.group/t/asset-link-dev-log/1175 😁
[11:26:46]<mstenta[m]>Me tooo! It looks great symbioquine !!
[11:27:05]<mstenta[m]>Think you'll be on the thursday call this week?
[11:27:18]<symbioquine[m]>Yeah :)
[11:27:53]<mstenta[m]>Great!
[11:31:45]<skipper_is[m]>That's really cool, so if I understand correctly, it's an alternative front end for FarmOS? The data is still recorded the same in farmOS, it's just a different front end?
[11:32:47]<symbioquine[m]>skipper_is[m]: Correct. It's a contrib module for farmOS that provides that alternative/simplified UI for farmOS. Data is read/written to the farmOS API.
[11:34:25]<symbioquine[m]>In a nutshell, it provides offline capabilities and a place to encode conventions as a simplified set of actions which can be performed on assets/(logs?)
[11:35:18]<skipper_is[m]>That's awesome. Definitely going to follow. We do like 15-20 different tasks on the farm that we log, and the majority of the team struggle with farmOS' wide array of options, it's too much so they just don't do anything...
[11:35:54]<symbioquine[m]>Yeah, that's definitely the problem I'm trying to help address :)
[11:37:17]<symbioquine[m]>symbioquine[m]: It's worth noting that the same could be said for Field Kit - just taking slightly different approaches to getting there.
[11:39:15]<symbioquine[m]>symbioquine[m]: jgaehring: Obviously, correct me here if needed 😀

[15:02:54]<skipper_is[m]>Yea, although field kit exposes similar functionality as the main front end, whereas it sounds like this can be a lot more custom?
[15:03:42]<skipper_is[m]>It looks like changed workflows too, which is neat
[17:11:32]<symbioquine[m]>Yeah, though I think jgaehring has designed a "Field Module" system for Field Kit that allows custom stuff there too.
