Release 0.3 - Work that's done

In the previous blog I was describing issues that I was planning to work on this week. Indeed I saw many different issues that I would like to contribute on. In the internal project Telescope I was working on Issue that suppose to update Stylelint in order to check only .css files.




After few hours of reading through and working on this issue I send my PR. I was also able to create a new issue so I can keep working on this project and contributing to it. As I said before, to work on the Telescope is new experience for me and I hope with professors supervising me and my classmates will be able to create a nice project.


For my external issue I was thinking to work on Wordpress/Gutenberg  project but in the end I change my mind and decide contribute to Microsoft/STL. There are many issues that has to be fixed on this project and looks like not too many people have time to help this project solve issue. This week I picked this issue. I'm very glad that I was able to work on it because issue has been created by member of this project but when I submit my PR some other members did not consider that should be an issue at all because resolving issue that I work on will break the complication of the code. Finally members of the project run the test and decide that changes will simplify the code without confusing users of the code.

Release 0.6

Going back to Telescope. Between release 0.5 and 0.6 I was working on the Telescope project. I was assign to few issues during the 2 weeks period.  My first issue was to add test to make sure our application starts. This issue reference to the page where possibly I can look for solution. Ideally issue -363 should solve: a) make sure that our app is working b) allowed to hit correct root. After reading examples and documentation I have learned that there is 'start-serve-and-test' npm package that starts server, waits for URL, then runs test command; when tests end, shuts down server.  How to use this package: Install this package  npm i  start-server-and-test Add command to the script. In my case Telescope already has command to start server and command for the tests. This way I just had to combine both commands into one that I named "CI" and add localhost.  Indeed this package did not solve the intention  of the issue I was working on. This packa

Hacktoberfest - Issue #1, Pull Request #1

In this article I will continue to talk about my journey through the Open Source Development. As I mention in previous post   I am participating in Hacktoberfest. Requirements for this fest is to submit 4 Pull Request during the month of October in order to get a T-shirt with Hacktoberfest logo. In this post I will talk about my first PR (Pull Request). In the beginning of October I went through many filed issues on the Git Hub in order to find to work on something this month. My very first issue was to create a small animation selector for Hacktoberfest. Hacktoberfest animation. This task was not very complicated but more on a practice to fork, edit code, create PR and merge. Neither this task required any special installation (Visual Code is enough to handle this issue) Steps to complete PR for this issue: 1. Create CSS file with my own animation. In this part I had to do little research on CSS animations. I find many different ideas and how to implement them to get

Hacktoberfest

Few more days till October will knock into our windows. Before I start my OSD600 month of October was the month when all celebration begins (Thanksgiving Day, Halloween, preparation for Christmas and Christmas itself). This year everything is different. For many new programmers and programmers who new to open source development this is the month to challenge ourselves in Hacktoberfest . My very first challenge is to pick a proper issue. I never thought that it will be that hard. It's been already 2 weeks since I start looking into this. And every time I can't decide what will be a good start. This is the time when emotion overlaps with knowledge. On one side I want to pick something that I would like to do but on the other side the fear that my Pull Request will not be excepted make me nervous. After searching through so many issues on the GitHub i pick few issue I will work. My first goal for this challenge is to gain confidence in programming, in the end of the day this
