Hi there xwiki devs,
I am Mua from Cameroon. I study computer engineering where i offer as major
software engineering. I am a lover of open source and would love to
contribute to xwiki. Here is my github link https://github.com/muarachmann
I have been around open source for a year now and familiar to the way it
works. I am kind of lost with xwiki to my suprise (lol).
Why are you lost compared to other open source software development?
I would really
love to contribute to this organization and help increase my skills.
My skill set is python, C, html, css , php, javascript and a little of
java.
XWiki is coded mostly in Java and javascript/html/Css for the front end part.
I have a few questions with regards to xwiki.
1. Does it works like wiki.
It’s a wiki yes. See https://xwiki.org.
2. How can i setup a dev environment for xwiki. I am
on MacOS
See https://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Building/
The trick to find information is to google. If you do you should find plenty of
information.
3. I forked this repo
https://github.com/muarachmann/xwiki-platform to
begin contributions but i am lost
Did you google ‘xwiki contribute’ for ex?
If you do, you’ll find https://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Contributing
And https://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Onboarding/
Welcome to the XWiki community! :)
Thanks
-Vincent
