The Ubuntu Component Store allows app developers to install pre-built reusable components with a simple "ucs install" command. What we'd like to see happen is a large library of useful QML and binary components build up for Ubuntu app development, similarly to how that's happened for Python or Node.js or Ruby. Need your QML app to be able to run a shell command, or process images, or use Python, or include a well-written existing QML component? Simply "ucs install" it; no C++ or Makefiles required. And if you've written a reusable thing, add it to the Ubuntu Component Store and then everyone can make use of it.

Here we'll talk about what's already done for UCS and how to encourage people to contribute components to it, to start that ball rolling.
