Topic: Civic Tech Field Guide
The Civic Tech Field Guide (http://civictech.guide) is an open collection of over 2,000 civic tech entities, from apps to data standards to funders, built and maintained by Civic Hall. We’ve leveraged the Field Guide to produce a timeline of civic tech projects, spanning from 1994 through 2018. The timeline traces the evolution of our growing field, including the civic hacking meetup boom, and an apparent slowdown in new project launch rate in recent years. Come explore the civic tech timeline, and add your projects to it if they’re not already represented.
