Release 0.4 part 1

It's been one week since Release 0.4 start and I was able to manage some work in open source.

For my external project I picked as always Microsoft/STL. This time I was working on correcting return type as per documentation of STL.
Why I always pick issues from Microsoft/STL?
This is because the way they explain the bug. It is very well define, there is description how to reproduce the bug and files that are crashing or need updates. Another reason is that there are only 20 contributors to this project and I'm 8th by the amount of contributing (even though it is only 31 line of code). This contributors are very quick to respond if I need any help or to review my PR.

My goal for external project is to contribute to Wordpress/Gutenberg. I find it challenging because it is much harder to get in contact with some members of this project and when the issue is exist its not always very well describe. This can take quite a bit of time to solve the bug.

As per my internal project I add jest --watch option. It hasn't been approved yet, but hopefully it will. In the next 2 weeks I would like to contribute more to the Telescope because this project is very exciting and help me to learn many new things.

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

Back on Track or working on the Table Reservation Application

Image
Table Reservation Application is an application with many features. One of the most important features is to reserve a table online and send the form to the restaurant. All summer me and my other two teammates try to accomplish many milestones of this project but due to heavy loads from other subject not everything was implemented. Two months I could not sleep without writing lines of code in order to complete this project. In the end this is how many lines of code I wrote and delete.  Even it is looks like a lot of line of code in the end of the day many features were left out. It hurts me to see that such a beautiful idea was not implemented till the end. Beside that, contributing to the project help me to learn many new things and be on top of the technologies. For example I was able to learn angular material UI. This application was desighn for PRJ666 course in order to graduate from Seneca college with Computer Programming and Analysis diploma. This mean that if I decide to have d

Hacktoberfest - Issue #1, Pull Request #1

Image
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
