I know a lot of the extensions I've built for D2L over the years have had a similar model, but they were, by necessity, point-to-point integrations and bespoke code, not easily portable to other institutions even if they were also D2L users. Having this officially supported, especially with integration into the quicklinks system and the ability to write back results, could seriously sand down the bumpy parts of our local integrations. I have to reserve judgement until I get my hands on it and see how well it works in practice, but I'm definitely excited. Good work D2L! I work for an educational institution, not a tool vendor, but I see lots of opportunity for building stuff around BLTI. Are there any plans toward community building around this?
