What is this? A hardware metadata standard for discoverability of open hardware. How does this work? Via a human and machine-readable “manifest” file you can put next to your read-me and license files (see an example here). This simple text file formatted in YAML will flag web crawlers that there is something interesting out there and pass them on the information you want to share about your project!
You can create a manifest file for your hardware project in our web interface and add a reference to it in our reference implementation database. This will automatically index it in our automated search page along more than 400 other pieces of hardware. We also currently work on the integration of this standard in the Observatory of Open Hardware, our search engine for sustainable open hardware, open design and maker projects as well as in the upcoming DIN SPEC 3105 standard for open source hardware documentation.
