Meeting with Josh and Tobias. Small intro between all of us. We chatted for just over an hour. The goal was to see what it would take to revamp adilas. We eventually turned to what it would take to use the API to put an app layer or custom skin over the top of the whole platform. We talked about what FlyHi did with their API socket work and the app that they made. Here are some of my other note:

- Too much - not sleek - needs a reskin - needs to be an app

- The data entry person - who needs what? Keep it super simple. Go talk to them and figure it out.

- What does it look like - pair it down

- API sockets

- Assumptions and being willing to add layers over time

- Being a real business

- Tobias had a great approach based on the use cases not the software itself - don't think... what can it do or how does it work, think... what do I want it to do, don't worry about the current pages and/or limitations. How could this be used? Wouldn't it be cool if..., etc.

- Build on top, abstract, add layers - strip it down and make it specific for each industry - you could do this for any industry (app on top of a backend system)

- Find the low hanging fruit and start there

- Step function (layering it)

- building out a base and then using that as the starting point for other apps

- After they left, I spent some time watching the FlyHi video demo. This was a company that uses adilas but also built an overarching app to manage a whole other side of the picture (app side). They did a great job!
