Workflows: From idea to production

Step-by-step flows so Islamic tech ideas from this board can be taken into production by builders, founders, and teams.

Overview

  1. Pick an idea from the Ideas Board (or suggest one via GitHub).
  2. Dissect & validate using templates (problem, solution, users).
  3. Check Islamic authenticity where relevant (fiqh, sources, transparency).
  4. Research market & competition (TAM/SAM/SOM, competitors, positioning).
  5. Define brand & messaging (name, persona, value prop).
  6. Plan go-to-market (channels, launch, first 90 days).
  7. Build MVP and iterate with feedback.

Templates live in ../templates/. Use them in order or cherry-pick by stage.

3 Or fork, update ideas.json and schema, then PR

See CONTRIBUTING.md and Comprehensive idea structure. Add relatedSlugs to ideas in ideas.json for better Related suggestions on the board.

Workflow 4: You built something — add it to the board

Step Action
1 Update the idea in ideas.json: set status to in-progress or production, add url with your live link.
2 Run node scripts/generate-idea-html.mjs to regenerate the idea page and sitemap (or open a PR and a maintainer can run it).
3 Optional: Open an Edit existing idea issue with the same changes so the community sees the update.

If it’s a new idea (not on the board), use Suggest new idea and include your live URL.
