Hello Community,
Following the Official Announcement of GSoC Mentor Organisations,
Here are some important Practices/Tips for Potential Contributors as we wait for the GSoC Contributor’s Applications to open on March 18
Go through our introductory Issues and try to work on them. . Important Note:
Please if you can’t handle an issue or do not have time to work on it, feel free to un-assign your
self and set it open for others to work on it.
Whenever there’s a UI change in your PR, please attach screenshots (if possible short video) before and After your changes to make it easier for reviewers to review.
Ensure you format your code properly
We are currently transitioning from the JSP to a react-based UI.
Feel free to create an issue about translating a component from JSP to react ie most of our reports are still on the JSP legacy UI
Do some code Reviews for PRs from other forks. Reviewing code from others is one of the great ways to learn the OpenELIS code base.
Be active on the OpenELIS talk forum, and help others to solve their issues regarding developments, tests, and deployments.
Go through Our Projects/Ideas List to select which one suits your skill set and interest …Start a Talk Thread about it to brainstorm more ideas around it
