[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] RedPen Integration into XWiki as Extension (Gsoc Project 2017)

Hi all. I am De Sheng, a student from Singapore. Thank you for choosing me for gsoc. This is my first open-source project, so I do hope that you guys would be tolerant towards any potentially "newbie" questions that I may ask. My project is to integrate RedPen into the XWiki platform. What I'll be planning to do would be to parse user inputs when they create an XWiki app or page into a separate database, then run RedPen, a word-editing software onto it. I'll make an extension with UI to allow the user to set natural language rules. As for now I have not fixed any JIRA issues yet as I've only just finished setting up the maven environment on my desktop. (I had previous custom maven repositories and settings which I had to undo so I took much longer than expected). Now that I'm ready to debug, I am going to bug everyone with questions and possible issues (Please don't kick me out for that pun.) As with Sarthak's example, I also created a design page. (http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/RedPenIntegration) Thank you in advance for the guidance! P.S. This was actually to be posted a couple of days ago but I had some issues with subscribing to the mailing list. Sorry for the delay. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Proposal-RedPen-Integration-into-XWiki-as… Sent from the XWiki- Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
