To help new developers get into MediaWiki core and extensions, there's https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_become_a_MediaWiki_hacker (which does of course link to Annoying Little Bugs). To help new developers get into the web API, there's https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Tutorial and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API although I know these aren't as great as the API documentation that Meetup, Etsy, Flickr, and similar sites provide. To help new gadget developers, there is https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Gadget_kitchen . And to help new developers discover various cross-Wikimedia tech projects, there is https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_developer_hub . Just wanted people to know so they don't reinvent the wheel. :) -- Sumana Harihareswara Engineering Community Manager Wikimedia Foundation _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
