ChoirTrack is a web and headless platform for both public and member facing functions for a choir.
This project has advanced beyond early stages. The key functions to centralise and automate various activities that take place in the running and involvement of members in a choir.
The first feature is SetList for performance. This enables a set list to be assemble from songs and ordered.
The web side of the project aims to provide an out of the box solution for a public choir website as well as member and musical director visible only areas for collaborating.
Architectural approaches for deployment
A recommended approach and perhaps most common would be for ChoirTrack to be used for member facing activities: a choir intranet/portal. The public site would be separate - and could be based on another platform. This approach reflects real-life scenarios where a choir may already have a website and it's not necessary to replace this. Their need is for management software - which is where ChoirTrack would be used. APIs and automation are planned to enable public and ChoirTrack instance to synchronise data, for example event data.
The benefits of using ChoirTrack for member activities, separate from a public website are: security, simplicity and performance. Security - member data and activity can be separate from the public facing site. Simplicity - ChoirTrack can be maintained separately to an existing public site, development of public and member operations can proceed at different paces and priorities without interference. Performance - usage patterns of a public website versus a member's website are expected to be different.
Mobile
The headless side of the project is to provide api endpoints for a mobile app. Native iOS and Android platforms are being considered for this. However PWA - Progressive Web Application cross-platform approach is being considered first as it offers development time savings and the expectation is that most if not all operations can be implemented within a PWA. https://www.drupal.org/project/pwa

The general open source concepts of ChoirTrack take inspiration from FarmOS - https://www.drupal.org/project/farm - community, OpenSaaS - open software as a service: run yourself or with us.
