Area: Automation Platform of Digital Life

Overview

Action REAction is an automation platform designed to streamline and automate various digital tasks in a user's life. This project was developed using Go with the Gin framework for the backend and VueJS for the frontend. The platform functions similarly to popular automation tools like IFTTT and Zapier, allowing users to create interconnections between different digital services.

Project Structure

The project consists of two main components:

1. Application Server: Implements the core business logic using Go and the Gin framework, and exposes functionalities via a REST API.
2. Web Client: A browser-based client developed using VueJS for accessing and using the platform.

Features

User Management

• Registration and account creation
• Authentication via username/password or OAuth2
• User profile management
• Create, update, and delete workflows (AREAs)

Services

• Subscription to various digital services (e.g., Outlook 365, Yammer, OneDrive, TwitterX, Instagram, etc..)
• OAuth2-based authentication for service subscriptions

Action Components

• Define triggers based on various digital activities (e.g., project completion, new message, file upload)

REAction Components

• Perform specific tasks in response to triggers (e.g., send a message, add a file, post on social media)

AREA

• User-defined interconnections between Actions and REActions to automate workflows

Trigger

• Detects and activates REActions based on predefined Actions and their conditions

The main idea behind the platform is to allow users to create custom workflows by connecting different digital services and automating tasks based on specific triggers.

Architecture

• Application Server: Hosts the core business logic developed using Go and the Gin framework, and exposes functionalities via a REST API.
• Web Client: A frontend application developed using VueJS for user interaction.

Development Tools and Technologies

• Backend: Go programming language with the Gin framework
• Frontend: Javascript with VueJS framework
• Docker Compose: Used for containerization and orchestration of services.
