Dropcat is a small single-page app built using AngularJS, Foundation and pulling data from a WordPress WP-API site running the plugin PressForward.
The site allows any user to search through the topics aggregated into the subject site http://chronoto.pe, select a topic that interests them and, if available, select a subtopic. It will then show a responsive, mobile-ready, grid of all the stories on Chronoto.pe that fall under that topic.
The grid refreshes in real time! If you find a topic that interests you, just leave the browser window open and it will refresh with all the latest stories that come in under that topic.

This project is currently in its test phase and is being built by me, Aram Zucker-Scharff.
The easiest way to get started with Foundation + Compass.
- Download this starter compass project and unzip it
- Run
bower install
to install the latest version of Foundation
Then when you're working on your project, just run the following command:
bundle exec compass watch
If you'd like to upgrade to a newer version of Foundation down the road just run:
bower update
