Rhymus Application

The last day of Hacktoberfest is here and I submit my last pull request. It has been a great exposure to the open-source community. Before starting hacktoberfest I set two goals:

Git - How to use git

C# & TypeScript - Learn new languages

Working with multiple projects, I managed to get a hang of using git. Unfourtonalty I didn't have the chance to give C# & TypeScript. My plan is to focus on this goal for the next month as we dive into working with big open source projects.


rhymus

This week I had the opportunity to work on rhymus. 

the bug was to display the score to the player once the game was over. At first, the developer wanted the score to be displayed in a pop-up. I tried using javascript alert() method on but it didn't look very user-friendly, so I decided to come up with a design and suggest it to him. I decided to add the scoreboard on the card once the game was over and would be removed for a new game. Afterwards, I made the pull request and posted a preview of what I had done for the developer. The developer seemed to like what I had done and merged my fix.

Steps Into Open Source

Visual Studio Code is the project I plan to use to help me get involved within the open source community. Developed by Microsoft, it has become one of the most popular source-code editor out there. An editor with beneficial features built in such as:
·Debugging·IntelliSense·Git source control·Integrated terminal·Extension marketplace
Plus there’s so much more that I haven’t mentioned. The application is written in Typescript and supports Windows, OS and Linux.

During my internship I came across the release notes of Visual Studio Code for the month of August. Out of curiosity I quickly scanned the notes and reached the bottom of the page. I was amazed at the number of contributors there were helping Visual Studio Code become a better application. I also realized that there are other developers that are part of a community I had never knew about. Taking the Open Source Development course offered at Seneca will pave the way for me into this community.

Here i come Hacktoberfest

An amazing opportunity has appeared for me, giving me the chance to get involved in the open-source community. Its Hacktoberfest in a few days and I'm super excited to get my hands wet with some code! Hackertoberfest is an event hosted by Digital Ocean every October to get people involved and contribute to open source projects. As a beginner in the realm of open source, I will be participating in this event to reach the two goals I have set for myself.


Goals Git The first goal is learning more about how to use git. If you have been reading my previous blogs, I'm new to using Git and I have been learning the basics for over the past few weeks. But I feel like there's still more to learn and experience with Git. Participating in this event will help me utilizes that and help me become proficient in it. 
C# & TypeScript The second goal is to learn a new programming language. My focus will be on C# and Typescript, two languages that I have briefly touched before but I stil…

Whiteboard Application: Built with Open Source Projects

I just took my first steps into the open source world and it was amazing. As my first project, I built a note taking application with the help of some open source projects and Github. I’m going to admit, I was a bit scared at first because I hadn’t touched web development in months so I was I rusty in Javascript and other web technologies. Thanks to my instructor, I was able to set-up everything on Github with ease and execute git commands that I had forgotten. All in all it was a good experience and was nice to get back into coding after a long break from it.

Whiteboard Application The point of this application is to allow users to takes notes on a webpage. There are also features such as saving what you have written on the whiteboard or clearing the whiteboard all at once. The application was built using the following open source projects: ·Filer·PaperCSS·Hotkeys
FilerJS Browser Filersystem library allowed us to read and write to files with a given file path. This was really helpful as…
