|description=The [https://github.com/jonorthwash/Apertium-Global-PairViewer globe viewer] provides a globe visualisation of languages that we can translate a given language to and from. Currently, the flyers, which are the 3D colored connections, fade as either end of the connection goes out of the current scope of the globe. However, this causes flyers that connect two far away languages to be invisible (see issue for example). This task is to change the current fading function to account for far away connections and allow them to stay visible. There is an [https://github.com/jonorthwash/Apertium-Global-PairViewer/issues/22 associated GitHub issue].

Revision as of 01:33, 14 November 2019

This is the task ideas page for Google Code-in, here you can find ideas on interesting tasks that will improve your knowledge of Apertium and help you get into the world of open-source development.

The people column lists people who you should get in contact with to request further information. All tasks are 2 hours maximum estimated amount of time that would be spent on the task by an experienced developer, however:

  1. this is the time expected to take by an experienced developer, you may find that you spend more time on the task because of the learning curve.

Categories:

  • code: Tasks related to writing or refactoring code
  • documentation: Tasks related to creating/editing documents and helping others learn more
  • research: Tasks related to community management, outreach/marketting, or studying problems and recommending solutions
  • quality: Tasks related to testing and ensuring code is of high quality.
  • design: Tasks related to user experience research or user interface design and interaction

Clarification of "multiple task" types

  • multi = number of students who can do a given task
  • dup = number of times a student can do the same task

You can find descriptions of some of the mentors here.

Task ideas

The current task ideas here are for 2019. See Talk:Task ideas for Google Code-in for task ideas from previous years.

Mentors

These are languages that can be substituted for AAA and/or BBB for tasks each mentor is listed to mentor above.

If you do not see your language here, ask. We may be able to mentor or find you a mentor.
