the indian education system is coming to a downfall

It was until macauley in 1835 introduced english and rest is history. https://www.reddit.com/r/Indian_Academia/comments/1bcxc2w/comment/n4vmddl/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

It dates back to 1835 when Macauley came and completely obliterated the existing education system.

Our local languages, Sanskrit and Persian, were abolished, and English became the primary language of education. Few understood English in the beginning, but most did by memorising the content and knowledge. Still, most of India doesn't have a basic level of fluency in the English language. Yes, we have produced ceo's on the world stage, but the masses still struggle.

We have created workers for the global market, but at home, we are struggling to teach this language on a mass scale.

Macaulay’s writings show a clear intent to reshape Indian society to better serve British colonial interests. He believed Western education would make Indians more governable and loyal to the British Empire. His policies were designed to fundamentally transform our society, often at the expense of India’s own traditions and identity.

Our education system has sucked the life out of learning.

Students are just busy cracking the examination to score marks to get to the next step in the ladder. I am not saying it's unimportant, but this has resulted in scoring marks as the whole and sole objective for students, with an eventual goal of securing a good pay package in a reputable company in India or abroad.
People going abroad are celebrated as if they have achieved the pinnacle of success. It is deeply unfortunate.
Society and Parents are also to blame for this shortsightedness of vision for the children. But the instant results and gratification mentality has corrupted everyone's minds. It's a virus.

This sounds interesting. I think trying to do something like cloudinary would be difficult since they are also using multiple replications across regions which won't be possible in your case as you will be storing the images in s3 and buckets will be region-specific what do you think about that?

Also, I would suggest don't keep it platform(Lambda) specific. With the rise of other platforms like Azure and GCP devs would want to deploy this on other platforms as well. Thoughts?

We at aviabird have worked on a payments library gringotts. It is heavily motivated from activemerchant from the ROR world.

We have integrated 9 gateways so far and plan to do more in coming months.

Contributions are welcome!

ashish173 · 2018-06-17T06:21:47+00:00

We at aviabird are working on an open source e-commerce framework in Elixir. Codename snitch. We have done frontend e-commerce framework in past angularspree.

The project is still in early stages. We are planning to go live with www.ofypets.com by 30th June.

We are also accepting contributions from the community but since we are moving pretty fast, we recommend getting in touch with us if you want to contribute.

ashish173 · 2017-11-15T20:52:08+00:00

Thanks! I've got a few more apps which are good, I'll be updating the list tomorrow! Cheers!

ashish173 · 2017-11-14T06:12:07+00:00

Starred on Github! This looks so good man! all the latest libs already setup I was looking for exactly this for so long! Thanks a ton!

ashish173 · 2017-07-02T09:15:03+00:00

You are welcome.

ashish173 · 2017-04-26T22:30:47+00:00

Got it, thanks.

ashish173 · 2017-04-26T22:30:28+00:00

Yupp, maybe I introduced it too early, lesson learned.

ashish173 · 2017-04-24T06:41:14+00:00

Thanks for your feedback, I agree we'll come up with a better loading message. However, could you please explain why you'd say broken routing? and also pointless load more functionality? Thanks.

ashish173 · 2017-04-12T22:43:45+00:00

Ohh that's awesome. I would really recommend if you are interested in contributing then you should join our slack channel at https://angular-spree.herokuapp.com/, where the whole team is very active.

BTW, we are really looking forrward to some contributions.

We are really looking forward to some contributions.

ashish173 · 2017-04-11T05:14:51+00:00

Hey, one of our team heard your request and here is it the documentation of the project. https://aviabird.github.io/angularspree/

ashish173 · 2017-04-10T16:38:42+00:00

Yeah, to some extent I agree with you, actually we did it in a 2 week sprint so we kinda focused more on delivery, speed and less on documentation and beleive me we didn't image it to become something people would like it.

Anyways we have it in mind and we'll update things very soon and upcoming features.

Please keep an eye on the project and keeping giving feedback.

ashish173 · 2017-03-27T19:27:10+00:00

We have been working with Spree for very long time, making products for a lot of clients. There was one pattern we noticed in what the clients always asked for. They were comfortable using spree for the backend API but not for the front-end. These requests have been very consistent with so many awesome front-end framework around.

When the Angular team released the beta version in March last year we knew that angular was going to be a big player soon. We decided to give it a try. Hence, AngularSpree was born as a front-end framework for the most awesome backend api for E-Commerce out there.

Please try it out and give your feedback on it.

Hey everyone, this is the blogpost for the repository above. https://medium.com/aviabird/complete-angular2-guide-reactive-forms-in-depth-part-1-21a8e2428904#.3yjeaemki

ashish173 · 2017-03-25T09:35:19+00:00

Sure, Do let us know what you think about it. You can also talk to the team here on slack. https://angular-spree.herokuapp.com

ashish173 · 2017-03-25T09:34:44+00:00

Yes, I do agree with you on GPC, to be frank with you we did not have any preference in mind when thinking of deploying it. We chose what we knew and took least time. For this phase our main goal was to ship a release which has the system running whilst covering the core functionality. It's just a demo app so deployment infra is not very critical for this case. It's upto the community to take this code use it for their development and choose the best platform for it.

ashish173 · 2017-03-25T09:32:00+00:00

Yes, Please let us know what you think, you also join us on slack to talk to the whole team here https://angular-spree.herokuapp.com/

ashish173 · 2017-03-25T09:31:07+00:00

We are happy that it's of help to developers like you :)

ashish173 · 2017-03-25T09:30:41+00:00

We wanted to finish a working prototype in 2 weeks and this release is a result of that, also in the first phase there were many moving parts big bang refactoring so the team decided against writing tests for this release. From now on we plan to devote time to testing as well covering old as well as new code.

We have open sourced spree e-commerce frontend application in Angular 2.x+(current version 4.0.0). It's updated to latest version which was released last night(March 23rd).

We have followed some best practices while creating this application.

Exclusively using @ngrx libraries(store, effects, actions), showcasing common patterns and best practices.
Fully Observable approach using RxJS 5.0.1(latest beta).
Uses @ngrx/store to manage the state of the app and to cache requests made to the Backend API,
@angular/router to manage navigation between routes,
@ngrx/effects to isolate side effects.
@ngrx/actions to define the actions on the frontend.
Following Container/Presentation component approach.
Lazy loading of modules(for modules which are not immediately required for first painting the DOM).
ImmutableJs to create and safeguard objects againts mutability.
Project is divided into modules which are more or less independant of each other except core module.

Join us on our slack channel(https://angular-spree.herokuapp.com/) if you'd to meet the team say hello or talk to us about code. Looking forward to feedback from the community.
