Looking for Application Developers Frontend Backend for Nextcloud used as Community Hub for Mixed Reality Games

Who we are

We, denialofservice.fail, are an cooperative of experts involved in tech, science, game -design, performance, communication , theatre, film, live-action-role-playing and more.

Why we use Nextcloud and need two custom built Applications

  • While we are developing mixed reality games which can be played On- and
    Offline simultaneously we don’t have something like audience
    and are in need for a “Hub” which brings us and the people we play with together.

  • After a deep evaluation of different systems we decided to make Nextcloud the base for our development of a dedicated Community Hub because it fits most of our design standards which we try apply on all parts of our work:

Our Design-Standards:

  • inclusion beats exclusion
  • Open-Source beats proprietary solutions
  • No Datamining and as little logs as possible
  • implement features in an agile way
  • sustainability is core
  • Data-Security is core
  • Privacy is core
  • Mental and Physical Health of all people working and playing with us is core

What we are looking for

Therefore we are looking for people that have the skills and ambition to add the functionality we need to the Nextcloud 21 environment by

  • programming Frontend and Backend of two applications by the standards of the Nextcloud APP Developer Manual.

  • While the two Applications we need are quite specific we would like to discuss them with you in person.

How we want to achive this

  • Together with our Game & UX-Design Team, who already put our ideas into draw.io diagrams and FIGMA we offer you an interesting freelance job in a focused, diverse and open-minded team.
