Hi @Shreyaa-s @NitinBhasneria @Shulammite-Aso ,
For this week let us focus on the opening issue from the proposal that we all made. You all can then add the links above in the task list.

[Shulammite-Aso]

Most of the issues are the same in our proposals. I think splitting up the project so that each one of us will have specific areas to focus on, will be a fine thing.

publiclab/plots2#7873 had mentioned the same thing.

What do you think?

[keshav234156]

Yes, I saw all the proposals. Roughly around 75% of the proposal is the same. We can open all the remaining issues that are different and not present in other's proposal

I don't think giving a complete specific area to each one of us would be useful. Let's first open up the completely small independent issue and then we can start by claiming that independent issues.

Thanks!!

[shreyaa-s-zz]

I agree with @Shulammite-Aso . My proposal also focuses on some issues related to the work you've mentioned. This would mean a greater chance of the code breaking or having discrepancies if we were to work separately. A big team on Editor would yield the desired results only if we were to work as a team. Let's have a meeting where we could discuss our ideas, plan the next week, divide the work and establish a workflow. What say @keshav234156 @Shulammite-Aso @NitinBhasneria ?

[keshav234156]

@Shreyaa-s We can use this thread to discuss our ideas, plan the next week, divide the work and establish a workflow

[shreyaa-s-zz]

@keshav234156 that's fine by me.

[NitinBhasneria]

I agree with dividing and working seperately. But we all should know what each others are doing. @keshav234156 I agree with you.

[NitinBhasneria]

Yes, I saw all the proposals. Roughly around 75% of the proposal is the same. We can open all the remaining issues that are different and not present in other's proposal

I don't think giving a complete specific area to each one of us would be useful. Let's first open up the completely small independent issue and then we can start by claiming that independent issues.

Thanks!!

Here, I think that deciding the workflow and then divide the work will be a better option. simply claiming the issues won't help much. So, first of all we should decide what will be the best workflow as a team. Let's pin @jywarren @cesswairimu @emilyashley for there views. Thanks.

Let's pin @jywarren @cesswairimu @emilyashley for there views. Thanks.

I think this is cool!
We're either going to be dividing the work up and deciding how best to work on them by ourselves, or the mentors already have plans coming in place. I think we have to hear from them first either ways.

Thank you.

ok, Let's start by making a list of different sub-project projects possible

1. Potential Bugs
2. Mobile view optimization
3. Adding a new module for Customizing maps on PublicLab.org Adding new module for Custom Inserts on PublicLab.org #419
4. Adding test suite
5. Adding a linting tool
6. Develop a workflow for documenting hard-to-reproduce bugs, so that users can report and document them (with screenshots, GIFs, screen recordings, js console captures?)

[keshav234156]

@NitinBhasneria @Shulammite-Aso @Shreyaa-s Please list other sub-project possible other than this ?

[cesswairimu]

Hey all, congrats everyone once more and I love the discussions already going on here 🎉 🎉 ...
I think with all of you working on one project, the subprojects are bond to inter twin at any moment .. working collaboratively is more of the approach we should be going for...of course at a given time everyone will be working on separate issues but you might find one issue is dependent on or complete something, someone else is working on... makes sense?

We normally let the interns decide on how to divide the issues among themselves but we also encourage reviewing each other pull requests, interacting on discussions on each others work,
picking up approaches and mockups from each others proposals to come up with a better implementation on the parts you are working on e.t.c

[Shulammite-Aso]

Thank you @cesswairimu
Noted!! 🎉
