Corporate social media has failed. They are anti-social and detrimental to society. The Fediverse revolves around people and true social networking. Solidground will help you to make it shine. We aim to ease the creation of new solutions, so that you can design seamless social experiences. This project is in early stages of development.

Solidground wants to lower the technical barriers to encourage new applications and
services to emerge. With integrated specs
and living documentation, solutions have interoperability fully baked in.
We call these modular apps social experiences.
Building applications for the Fediverse is too hard. With no steering bodies
and involved community there is growing complexity and protocol decay. We must change course,
encourage adoption and further innovation.
There is a gap that exists between technical experts and the people using
their work. By enabling inclusive participation, more active collaboration and
stronger community bonds should be established.
Solidground stimulates this by means of social coding
and process guidance. We want to empower many people to help create solutions
for existing fedizens, and also appeal to a broader audience of non-profits, cooperatives, government and SMB's.
We offer a practical approach to enable you to take social networking
in a direction where online and offline aren't seen as separate. Together as creators we enter
the field of social experience design or SX to translate needs
into online services tailored to people, their relationships, and who they really are.
For too long now Social Media have clouded our vision of what 'social' truly means.
We must reaffirm that the entire web is social in nature, and must be supportive to daily life.
Brainstorm together, capture requirements, specify functionality, map the domain.
Elaborate use cases, define your features, script behavior, and scaffold the code.
Implement process steps, polish the user experience, plug into the ecosystem, launch.
By Going Beyond The App • We Enter The Peopleverse
With social networking we think technology nowadays. Yet it is intrinsic to human nature. Same as we have relationships and social activity in real life, so can we extend that, and build bridges towards the Fediverse. Based on open standards and a host of delightful apps we weave a social fabric that brings these two separate worlds closer together. Where all this is in support of human needs and our daily lives, we will call this the Peopleverse.
An exciting future lies in front of us. The Fediverse has a unique, grassroots culture of independent people that interact. Fedizens are passionate folks and value-driven. We will foster thriving communities, interconnected, where people are friends that collaborate. We build our own Spiral Island, our common home. With safe spaces for everyone to discover common interests, exchange ideas, tell great stories and forge new friendships.
