For part of the sacred tradition that is Yammer Hack Day, we (@schallert, @tdoyle042, @bichiliad), put our Red Bull-fueled intern minds together to create YamSauce, a new way for consuming Yammer feeds. Our main focus in creating YamSauce was thinking of clean and user-friendly ways to consume Yammer feeds and reach the ever-desired "Inbox 0". We also threw some JavaScript and CSS chops in to top it off.
Oh, and our app won one of 5 awards given out of over 60 submitted hacks.
If you want to just play around without provisioning your own app, just go to https://yamsauce.herokuapp.com
If you want to develop your own version of YamSauce, first get an app ID by creating an app on https://developer.yammer.com/. Next copy the .env.sample
file to .env
and put in your Yammer App ID. Then…
gem install bundler # if you don't have bundler
bundle install
bundle exec foreman start
Make sure you've run bundle install
before doing anything
