Wow, so as you might know ( or not ), I am part of the Poniverse development team. While I have not much to tell you about how we organize things, I can tell you what I have been working on recently. ( Yes >.> I don't have that title for nothing! )

 

The rewrite of Equestria.TV

 

 

Know right away that this a conjoint effort by @Key Gear and me. While we both are fully able to make everything on our own we decided to rather focus on different parts so as to maximize output. So it was decided that I would be responsible of the clientside part. ( What you see in the browser. ) And Key would do the serverside part. ( Code executed on the server. )

 

That being all decided, we worked trough a few prototypes. Got stuff working, and broke it again to make it even better and today we have this:

This is the owner/moderator view, a few things are different when connected as a normal member.

 

 

 

As you can see everything has changed from what we have currently. That is normal and on purpose. The current codebase and design of Equestria.TV is working, but hardly efficient. It has quite a few flaws that made it impossible to extend upon. This opened up a lot of different possibilities. We could rethink the whole website. And I believe we changed it for the good. Here is a rundown of the features we got right now: ( Whether they are new or not is not that important. )

  • Chat Commands ( i.e. /me, quoting and links )
  • Single Page Application, this is the feature which enables a lot of the other ones.
  • Custom Themes, the screenshot up there shows the Rainbow Dash theme. ( Sure you couldn't have guessed. )
  • More than one room, the rules aren't well defined yet so perhaps don't count on being able to create a room that is public.
  • Youtube/Livestream/JustinTV/(Pony.FM) support, Pony.FM still has to be implemented, but everything works. ( Youtube is of course synced with the server. )

Stay tuned for more updates and sneak peeks of features/projects. ( You have no idea how much I want to show you stuff but it's not quite ready yet :3 )

 

 

 

PS: Feel free to ask any questions related or not to this project. If I have an answer, I will probably give it to you.

To get this out of the way, yes I do love you. <3

This is cool and here's a question: what the hell are you watching?

It's a livestream about Birds! Red Tailed Hawks to be specific. They got out of their eggs just under a week ago.

Will it be possible to embed a stream into a post on another part of poniverse?

That's a good question actually. I for one don't see why not. The feasibility still depends on whether it is appropriate or not. ( But I am pretty sure it is )
