Thanks Everyone,
I will try to update about my progress every week(Every Monday). I am
spending this week mainly learning about basics of Velocity and some more
on Java. Meanwhile I am also going through developers guide and looking for
issues that I can start with. Also I think I would have to think(and
research) about, what would be the requirements that I would need in the
initial stage of development of the "Glossary Application”.
Welcome aboard! :)
To start with, I’d recommend that you follow the FAQ tutorial at
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/FAQTutorial/FAQTutorialMa…
Have you done it already?
Also you should read a bit on how the xwiki project develops code. All the info is on the
dev subwiki at
http://dev.xwiki.org
Especially:
-
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/DevelopmentPractices
-
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/CodeStyle
-
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Testing
Let us know when you’ve done all that. You should also pick and try to fix some simple
jira issues:
https://jira.xwiki.org/issues/?jql=Difficulty%20%3D%20Easy%20and%20resoluti…
Let us know on IRC or on this list if you need some help. Please consider using martrix
for IRC since it saves history and we can have a conversation even when you’re not
connected, see:
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Chat
Thanks
-Vincent
Thanks :)
