OpenCrowd has assembled a framework to enable rapid development of custom Web 2.0 applications for our clients. Web2.0 applications typically consist of rich user interaction, aggregation of multiple data sources and the ability to collaborate. All of these features are supported by this framework. The framework is built using Django, a python based web framework. OpenCrowd has had incredible success leveraging this framework in building social networking sites, collaborative dashboards, rich media sites and a wide range of user centric prototypes for our clients.
OpenCrowd's Social/Collaboration Dashboard Framework is a framework that OpenCrowd has assembled to help its clients build and deploy their applications faster. The framework leverages the pluggable apps based model of Django to quickly assemble an application with the desired functionality.
A development team can get a solid head start on building a Web2.0 custom app as the framework provides multiple pre-assembled building blocks. The other key benefit of this framework is that it does not constrain the development team with pre-set data models and rules that one typically find in the off the shelf products.
Using the framework, OpenCrowd is able to rapidly integrate reusable features and functions into their client's applications and focus specifically on the unique nature of a client's business. This allows a rapid development cycle and has enabled OpenCrowd to deliver meaningful application releases for its clients in 90 days.

- Drag and drop portal layout
- Mobile Detection
- Advanced Charting
- Community based features (Posts, Blog, Follow, Share)
