@tensau has been working on this for a while already but it’s time to make it official:  shackspace? There’s an app for that!

You might be thinking: What does a hackerspace need an app for?  Well, let me tell you what it does:

• shack status, check whether the space is open or not (there’s also a widget for this)
• Turn off (and on) individual ceiling lights in the shackspace lounge
• Quick-links to relevant communication channels + built in navigation
• Our vending machine crew can update the bookkeeping software while they’re re-filling the vending machines by scanning product barcodes and QR-codes
• A simple blog viewer

Features to be introduces with one of the next versions will be:

• Access to the wireless door lock to open the door with the press of a single button
• Better blog viewer
• Revamped GUI

Platform: Android 2.1 or higher
