Lighthouse CI

For the next couple of weeks, i will be focused on my internal pull request. My task is to work with Lighthouse CI and try to implement it into our course project the telescope. I can predict that this will be very fun and at the same time very challenging. But with research and experimenting, I'm sure i will figure out the most suitable way.

Lighthouse CI is a tool developed by Google to allow developers to test their websites and based on results given by the tool, improve their website. Implementing this would help us improve the front-end side of the project.

As of now, I haven't found anything to work on for my external pull request. I'm still in search of something I could do with TypeScript. I also have to address my vscode pull request which i talked about last week.

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 ·   ...

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 contribu...

Taking on new technology

In my last week's blog, I talked about the two objectives I would take on during November. In the middle of working on the contributions, I decided to change my issue for the internal open source project. I'm hoping to continue with this issue for next pull request I have to submit for my course. As you know, the external open source project I chose to contribute to was vscode . In the beginning, when i saw this issue , i thought this would be an uncomplicated and straightforward issue to work on within a big open source project. Before i forked the clown, i took a good look at the documents they had to just get a sense of how to contribute to the project and do the simple tasks of running and testing. After cloning, i had an issue running the project, this is where i spent some good time reading the documentation again, but i was just having a hard time running the project. I managed to get it running after a few reads.  Thanks to another contributor i had a hint of where...
