CLUSTER DOOR-HACKERSPACE-MOBILE · 9 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2018-04-24

Hackerspace door access apps

This cluster consists of mobile apps for hackerspace members to check open status and control door access, often via SSH, MQTT, or cryptographic keys. Entries appear sporadically from April 2018 to March 2026, with a concentration in late 2018 and early 2019, then isolated entries in 2022 and 2026. Traction leaders are c-beam, BlueGate, and HACS, each with 0 stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 9 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
