Release 0.5 React Experimental continuation

In this post I will continue to describe what I have done so far to complete my issue. This issue try to conquer problem of integrating React Experimental channel into the Gutenberg project.
Steps that I have to do:
1. First I read through all the documentation about Experimental channel and what the ways to implemented. Experimental channel can only be implement on the projects that use React as external library. The reason is because if the project uses React for GUI and there is any bugs or features that can fail it can botched the front end. Gutenberg uses React as external library so that is why they try to see how Experimental will work on Gutenberg and on the other side to test new features.
2. Currently Gutenberg uses React 16.9.0. So after reading through the all documentation I updated version of the React on Gutenberg. Because Gutenberg uses React as an external library there are some changes to be done in the PHP.
So here is my files with changes:





After this changes I create a pull request but unfortunately I was not able to pass Travis test.
3. On my third step I'm trying to solve the problem that causing my code to fail Travis. After investigating into this problem I was able to narrow the issue down. My code failing on
"test-unit": "wp-scripts test-unit-js --config test/unit/jest.config.js".
Once Experimental will be integrated into the Gutenberg new features from React will be unlocked to test. As for today React experimental channel release Concurrent Mode. This feature will allowed app to be responsive and gracefully adjust to the user's device capabilities and network speed.
So far this is my last step because with out fixing the code I can not implement any other changes.

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

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

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
