At BEEP, we work with open source. You can work with the open source code if you want to add functionalities to the BEEP app or API and you can program in PHP/Javascript. Through open source you can expand the BEEP app. The best part is that you can also share your work with BEEP, so the improvements are available for all beekeepers that are using the BEEP app.
More information on how to work with the code is available in the Github manual. You do not have to announce that you are going to work with the code. You can simply download the code here. We recommend you to make a fork from the BEEP repository and make adjustments in your own Github fork. Through a pull-request you can request that your code is updated in the online version of the BEEP app.
Server settings of the BEEP app and the data of the beekeepers are not accessible to safeguard privacy.
