Experimental project

This is a sandbox project, which contains experimental code for developer use only.

This project is designed to allow non-technical site managers to deploy approved changes to their site, right from within a user-friendly interface on the site itself.

For example, if a client has commissioned 5 different new features for their site, then once the developers have finished implementing them, the client will be able to review all the changes, then click a "make it live"-style button on whatever features they are ready to deploy (and in whatever order). The feature will be then be automatically deployed to the site.

Also on tap for this project is integration with project management ticketing systems (so that the client can communicate with the agency developers from within their own site, while reviewing the changes).

A initial proof-of-concept version of this system has already been built and shown to be able to work with Cadre-hosted Drupal sites. However, the code does not yet integrate with any publicly-available hosting provider APIs, so installing the module on your own site will not yet do anything.
