💡 TL;DR: On March 19, we're hosting a special CKAN Extensions Demo Day, giving developers the stage to showcase their extensions, demo their features, and connect with users and contributors.

The strength of CKAN comes from its community of users, developers, and advocates. All across the community developers take advantage of CKAN extensibility to create plugins that extend its functionality, automate tasks, or allow integration with other tools. We want these extensions to be known and used!

That’s why on March 19, we’re shaking up our CKAN Monthly Live format to bring you a special CKAN Extensions Demo Day.

In a lightning talk format, presenters will be able to showcase their extensions and demo them to present a quick overview of their features.

Why participate?

  • For users: Discover new extensions to enhance your CKAN instance.
  • For developers: Gain visibility, attract new users, and even find contributors!

Have an extension to share? It doesn’t matter if it’s a tiny feature, as long as it is useful to the wider community we want to hear about it. Submit your extension using the form below, and we’ll be in touch.

🔍 What you need to know:

  • Extensions must be open-source, you need to provide a link to their repository
  • They need to be useful to the wider community (if you want to showcase your custom CKAN site you can reach out separately to present it in a future CKAN Monthly live)
  • You’ll have 5-10 minutes to present, ideally a live demo of your extension in action
