MUST
This prototype must have a homepage and three APIs documented and showcased. It must implement the structure and look&feel desired.
SHOULD
An API sandbox should be available, either integrated to the prototype or working as a stand-alone proof of concept.
COULD
This prototype can be based on any tool helping to build this prototype fast. We might or might not use this tool for the final project.

Alright, I believe this task contains all the dependencies needed in order to release the prototype before the end of September.
This prototype is being designed by @MSyed and build by @jgonera. Its contents are written by @brainwane, who is also the product owner. I'm helping kickstarting the project while it's useful.
A couple of questions:

See my comment at T491#18 proposing to use MediaWiki to enable this project. @MSyed, what if we focus our current effort in agreeing on the design at a mockup level? Then @Anomie and perhaps others could help implementing that design in MediaWiki.
It looks like @jgonera will not be able to work further in the current prototype, but perhaps we don't need to follow that path anyway? We could rather prototype using a MediaWiki instance in Labs.
I believe https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Data_and_developer_hub is close. It features the RCStream API and the MediaWiki Web API, the latter touches on Wikidata. It matches the Inspire Explore Build layout. But it uses the Vector skin and mediawiki.org surroundings.
It exists, I will have dev.wikimedia.org redirect to it, but not promoted. Before the wide-scale promotion of T307: Announcing the Developer Hub prototype release it needs
In T301#1134932 Qgil commented "Plain Vector with no less than mediawiki.org's header and left column defeats in great measure the purpose of the prototype, because we will need to have a lot of imagination to envision how the launched project will look like."

http://devhub.wmflabs.org/wiki/Dev:Data_and_developer_hub meets the criteria. We'll get it ready for broader feedback early in June.
