Some ideas for projects that could be a good idea for an Outreachy project and I could help mentor.
BinderHub@home
A simple web server that understand the URL spec part of https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/binder-examples/requirements/master (/v2/gh/binder-examples/requirements/master
), runs on your laptop, uses repo2docker to build the image and then launches it locally. So http://localhost:8080/v2/gh/binder-examples/requirements/master would land you in the same view as launching it on a BinderHub. No need for kubernetes. Some more thoughts Creating a new Binder-at-home tool
Binder Drop
https://app.netlify.com/drop but for BinderHub. A website that you can drag a folder onto that then creates a binder from it and launches it for you.
notebook2repo
A tool that extracts the dependencies from the metadata of a notebook, then builds a docker image from them. This would let us have notebooks that are self-contained in addition to directories being the shareable unit (as repo2docker does). In v1 we could have it create files in a directory that repo2docker recognises and piggy back on that.
