My nickname on IRC: curiousguy13 Regards, Kunal As the instigator of both mounting of Documents in the Journal and the current ticket, let me chime in with some clarification of my intention. (1) We added Documents to enable a simple portal between GNOME and Sugar. While it is true that there are other useful directories in GNOME, I think Documents is enough for our purposes. (2) The activity directories would be made available while the activity is open. Perhaps we designate activity.get_bundle_path()/Journal as a location to mount if that path exists? regards. -walter -- Walter Bender Sugar Labs http://www.sugarlabs.org ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

[Sugar-devel] Introduction
Hello there, I'm Kamaljeet Kaur, a third year Computer Science student from Punjab, India. I have interest in learning Python, JavaScript, HTML and CSS. Have also used them in my previous open-source project. On the announcement of selected organisations in GSoC-14, I didn't know much about the organisations whose names I already knew. As from my childhood, I got attracted towards art and creative stuffs, the name Sugar-labs made me look inside. After exploring, I came to know about the Design team, writers team and all the creative people out there. I felt like, Wow! This community is for me. I can do it. Explored more and set up the development environment. And this is my first love that didn't make me feel like searching for any other organisation that interests me meaning that I like the first one only :D Well, now I want to continue my journey with this sweet community: Sugar-labs. Want to apply for Activity Unit Tests. What I have got about it from my own interpretation is that Activity Unit Tests mean something like testing output for other programs w.r.t. their Inputs. Can be like checking the accuracy and reliability. Correct me if I'm wrong. @Mentors Walter Bender and Daniel Narvaez Please guide me to explore and get more about this project. Or you'll suggest me to explore other projects too? Please guide me so that I can get the maximum about the project before applying which will help me to understand it better and ultimately complete it properly. Thank you. -- Kamaljeet Kaur kamalkaur188.wordpress.com ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

Re: [Sugar-devel] Social Help proposal
Thank you Laura :) SN seems to be a perfect match to provide Social Help for Sugar students.

Re: [Sugar-devel] Social Help proposal
Discourse gets more attention, therefore is might be more reasonable to use it in the long run. Exactly. The Discourse community is quite large even now when the project is in its infancy.

Re: [Sugar-devel] Interest in Cordova/PhoneGap container for Sugar Project as a part of GSoC 14
Hi Gaurav (and others interested by the this GSoC project), The start point for the project is to have a good understanding of: what is Sugar, what is Sugar Web Framework and how the interface between Sugar for Python and Sugar for JavaScript works. Note that you'll need both a good knowledge of JavaScript but, because the project is to interface Cordova with Sugar, you'll have to dig into some Python code too. Here some reading that I could suggest to you: - [1] Describe the architecture of Sugar for the web. - [2] Is the description of the last year GSOC project that was precisely on enhance the Sugar Web interface. - [3] Is the blog of Suraj the last year GSOC student - and will co-mentoring with me, he described in detail difficulties that you could probably meet too. - [4] Sugarizer is a port of Sugar in HTML5/JavaScript, it's the good introduction to Sugar. Plus the Cordova PhoneGap will have to work inside Sugarizer too. - [5] Explain how to create a Sugar development environment. It's a pre-requisite to work on the project. - [6] Explain how to add a new Cordova platform, basically, it's the work to do. - [7] is this mailing list, you should explore archives regarding Sugar Web Framework.

I was looking at the ideas list and the Cordova container for sugar interested me. I have had experience in Python, HTML, Javascript and consider myself fluent in them. I have been using them as a part of major college coursework and other projects of mine.I have had been developing web applications using web2py,GAE. I have used phonegap once to convert a web app to an android app. Here is my github profile https://github.com/gauravp94 that contain the projects that I have successfully completed till now. I have been an active contributor for the Sugarlabs community since a few months. (I have done a few small bug fixes and also added a verbosity feature for sugar-toolkit-gtk3 and also reported some bugs and added some points to the docs.) It would be great, it someone could clarify some of my questions. I am not clear on -- 1. How should I approach this project, make web activities or look at the Cordova code and ask the Cordova folks on how to make a new container. 2. Any other useful pointers for the project, that might help? 3. Any existing documentation/ code that has been done in regard to this project? Till then, I will be looking at the code for web activities in sugar and also make a sample web activity. As soon as I get some instructions, I will get on to work on it and keep this thread updated about my progress. Thanks, Gaurav (gp94 on IRC) PS - I have another thread on the mailing lists regarding the Platipy project, since I don't want things to get mixed up.So, I have created this thread. *** ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
