[Shivam Rai]

Sir ,
This is my first time contributing to open source.
I have been learning python ports and have  experience of bug fixing in it
apart
I have no such contribution in any other open source project. I have gone
through most of the changes done  after sugar port to python 3 pull
merge. I have
been testing regression issues but still there is more to be done from my
side.

More thoughts and suggestions are appreciated.

Regards,
Shivam

Hi Shivam,

Thanks for sending your proposal, a few comments;

In "Why do you want to work on this particular project?" you have said that
you chose it because of
your skills in Python and porting, you also mentioned that you've started
working on some bugs,
could you also include links to your existing contributions on porting -
include the ones not related to Sugar Labs too -.

Also don't forget to upload your proposal from your GSoC dashboard.

You don't know any student who would work on it at this time so it's better
to include it as it's in the
scope of the project.

Using OpenCV  is adding an extra
dependency to the activity and I don't think that's a good idea,
It increases maintenance duties and it becomes one more thing to worry
about.
Looking at the repo it does seem that it might be large and bundling it in
the activity would increase the
image size and that's not something we want.

Thanks for sharing, if you can keep them engaged more with testing and
working on improvements,
that'll be great.

 The previous attempts at porting an activity can be a good starting
 point for you as you can complete
 the PR, nothing wrong with that, the only activity in the list that I
 think should be removed is followmeButia
 except you have the resources to test it on bare metal.

Hi Jui,
thanks for the suggestions.
1. I'll definitely consider adding more explanation to the selected
activities ( I thought it would be more confusive. but if it adds more
clarity, I'll definitely add more description).
2. I thought it would be best to discuss with the candidate who's going to
work on 'port to python3' to take up those activities so that it will be
soon ready to release. In case if this doesn't line up, I'll consider doing
it within GSoC deadline if time permits or post GSoC.
3. Surely, I'll go through the open PRs and try to complete it unless it's

4. The feature addition for imageviewer activity to add editing tools would

5. Glad you liked the timestamp feature :)
About the students testing the activities, I thought it would be off-topic
to mention more in the proposal. Since the pandemic, I felt many of my yoga
students weren't coping up with the academics. So I started teaching them
math and science in my free time. Allowing them to test the activities has

Re: [Sugar-devel] GSoC'21 draft proposal for 'Improve and maintain 15 sugar activities'

[Jui Pradhan]

Hi Sourabha,
Thanks for the updated draft proposal. I have few
comments:
- I read the thread where you explained the selected activities and
activity-specific features you would like to add. It would be great if you
could add the explanations from your email in the proposal. For example, in
Recall I found the email explanation more clear than the one added in the
proposal. In addition to that, I feel explanations like the one you gave
for image-viewer activity should definitely be there in your proposal (by
that I mean just by reading the draft proposal, its not clear which image
editing tools you intend to add).
- Most of the activities that involve a port to Gtk+3 also require porting
to python3. (Activities like: Bounce, Compress, labyrinth, etc), if you
feel you can work on port to python3 please feel free to add it to your
proposal
- For the activity Arithmetic, there is an open PR for porting to Gtk+3 and
python3, you may continue work on the same PR if you find that convenient.
- The tools and technologies mentioned OpenCV. Did you find an activity
that uses it? I would love to have a look.
- I really liked your idea of adding a timestamp to messages in the chat
activity!

Also, I would love to hear about the activities you tested by letting the
students use them. :)

Thanks.
Regards,

I don't think you're biting more than you can chew as sometimes we can't
really say how long it'll take
to fix a problem unless one starts working on it.

The previous attempts at porting an activity can be a good starting point
for you as you can complete
the PR, nothing wrong with that, the only activity in the list that I think
should be removed is followmeButia
except you have the resources to test it on bare metal.

Re: [Sugar-devel] GSoC'21 draft proposal for 'Improve and maintain 15 sugar activities'

[Chihurumnaya Ibiam]

Hi Sourabha,

Thanks for the draft, a few comments;

What do you mean by "Add help activity" - second item in the Honey part -?
When you say "Contribute to the documentation", could you be a bit more
specific? What documentation do you intend to contribute to?
The fifth item "Fix issues that are required for an activity to be
released" seems vague,
what issues are you referring to here and in what activities?

You've selected less that 15 activities as stated by the project idea, we
definitely can talk about
the activities you'd want to work on.

I like the fact that you teach yoga classes to kids, I think that's amazing.

Hi Abhishek,

Welcome to the Sugar Labs community, as you're learning Javascript you
might want to
work on our Javascript repos, music blocks
 and sugarizer
.

You should also take a look at our contributing doc

Hi Janit,

Thanks for reaching out, you might want to take a look at the sugarizer
 and music blocks

repos as your skill set matches both projects.

You should use both projects first, music blocks can be found here
 and sugarizer here
.
After which you might want to look at existing issues and see which you'd
like to work on.
Looking forward to your contributions.

Hi Shivam,

As Jui said, you're welcome to propose new Sugarizer features. Just fill
one or more issues on the Sugarizer here
<https://github.com/llaske/sugarizer/issues> to explain each new feature
and why it could be useful.

Quick answers on your first proposals:
1) There is already a filter on activity names using the Search field
2) Not sure what Dictionary activity is. You should give examples here.
3) Good point.

Regards.

Hi Shubhangi,

Hmmm. You're right, it sounds like Chrome browser look for index.html on
the web instead of trying locally!

Try with the full local path where you clone the repo, something like:

open -n /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app --args
--allow-file-access-from-files file:///Users//sugarizer/index.html

It should work.

[Sugar-devel] GSOC' 21 aspirant

[Joykirat Singh]

Hi everyone,

I hope you are all doing great!


I am Joykirat Singh, a second-year undergrad student studying Computer
Science with Design at Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology
Delhi (IIITD).

I am really interested in the MusicBlock project and have made four merged
PRs, three of them were on porting to ES6, and one was a bug fix. I have
looked at the project ideas, and I am interested in 3 of the ideas:

   1. Music Blocks Block Graphics Refactoring
   2. Music Blocks Menus and Palettes
   3. Music Blocks Project Blocks Reorganization


I am also a design student and have some experience with user interface
design. I wanted to start working on these project ideas. Can you please
guide me on how I can start working from both the technical and design
perspective?


Regards

Joykirat Singh

Hi Shivam,
 I truly appreciate your effort to come up with project
ideas. We are open to discuss new ideas, you may make a pull request
against the GSoC repository. Any new project idea needs to be discussed and
you would need someone willing to mentor you for that idea. Kindly have a
look at the project ideas listed on the Ideas page:
https://github.com/sugarlabs/GSoC/blob/master/Ideas-2021.md

Thanks.
Regards,
Jui

Re: [Sugar-devel] GSOC 21 Aspirant

[Shivam Rai]

I have thought of few ideas of development in sugarizer.

1.Including Filter in Activity list.
There are number of sugar activities.
So applying filter to find our needy activity without scrolling all of them
in the activity list. Filters like gaming, science, etc. would help.

2.Adding Dictionary as sugar activity.

3. Rather than displaying  the activity list from top (by default) after
every time we quit an application , the activity list is to be displayed at
the point till the place up to where it was already scrolled.
I thought for this as when i was try all activities one by one in the
activity list , when i reached to activities present in the last of
activity page each time when i quit an activity i was by default directed
to top of activity list . So for going to the activity next to previous
activity i would have had to scroll again to bottom.

I have thought of few of these ideas and thinks they will help in
increasing the utility of the platform.
I would  request you to guide me with your opinion over these.

You might want to take at the music blocks
 and sugarizer
 repos as they match some of your
experience.
