Sadly, there are many open issues related to the module and it needs some love. Recent changes in V8, Node's JS engine, now make it possible to fix several of the issues and improve the vm code base significantly. - -This project includes learning how to build and debug Node.js core, how the vm module is implemented, some Node internals about the global proxy, and how to use the V8 API. You will be coding in C++ and write tests in JavaScript. No worries if you're not too familiar with these languages, a desire to learn and curiosity are much more important than a fixed skill set. - -Mentor based in Europe. -https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/6283 - -------------------------- - -**Improve test coverage and expand feature set for the Node.js debugger** - -*Mentor:* [Rich Trott](mailto:rtrott@gmail.com) - -The Node.js built-in debugger is minimal. Test coverage is spotty and there may be opportunities for expanded functionality. - -This project includes learning how to build Node.js core, how the debugger is implemented, and how testing is done in Node.js core. You will be coding in JavaScript and possibly a little C++. - -Mentor based in North America (San Francisco). - -------------------------- - -**Improve AsyncHooks in Node.js core** -*Mentor:* [Trevor Norris](mailto:trevnorris@nodesource.com) - -AsyncHooks, formerly known as AsyncWrap, is a low level tracing module which gives visibility into the asynchronous transactions of Node.js' event loop via a JavaScript API. AsyncHooks' goal is to provide insight while also having the explicit requirement of having zero overhead when not being used, and minimal overhead when it is used. - -This project will involve learning the mechanics of and writing both tests and documentation for the AsyncHooks module. Writing the tests requires learning how AsyncHooks will be used by users and third-party integrators. Initially all tests will be written in JavaScript, but eventually they will be duplicated to test AsyncHooks' C++ API. - -Experience with JavaScript is necessary, and knowing some C++ is a bonus. Most importantly is the desire to learn, and not ask questions you've haven't already Googled for yourself first (i'm only part tongue in cheek about that). - -Mentor based in the North America (Utah). - -------------------------- - -**Improving Serial Communication in Node.js by diving into libuv** - -*Mentor:* [Myles Borins](mailto:myles.borins@gmail.com ) - -One of the strengths of Node.js is the ability to run on various different operating systems. One of the ways in which this is accomplished is via [libuv](https://github.com/libuv/libuv), a library for cross platform asynchronous I/O. Currently, doing serial communication in Node.js requires installing a module such as [node-serialport](https://github.com/EmergingTechnologyAdvisors/node-serialport) which relies on natively compiled components. Having natively compiled components in a node module make it more difficult for individuals to install, and has been a blocker for new developers interested in getting involved with node-bots. - -In this project, you will collaborate with members of the Node.js project, and members of the libuv project, to define and implement the necessary apis to remove the need for natively compiled components to support serial communication in Node.js. This will involve planning, implementation across code bases, and a certain level of open source politics to ensure that the work being done will fit the needs of the consumers in the Node.js ecosystem. - -The project will be broken down into a number of stages including: - - * Getting familiar with the Node.js code base - * Getting your first commits into Node.js core - - A list of good first issues can be found [here](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22good+first+issue%22) - * Getting familiar with the libuv code base - * Getting your first commits into libuv - - A list of future milestones can be found [here](https://github.com/libuv/libuv/milestone/5) - * Defining and implementing the interfaces needed in libuv for implementing Serial communication - * Defining and implementing the interfaces needed in Node.js to expose the libuv api's needed for implementing Serial communication - * Collaborating with community projects to define and support an upgrade path. - - Mentor in United States (NYC) - - ------------------------- - -**The Canary in the Gold Mine** - -*Mentor:* [Myles Borins](mailto:myles.borins@gmail.com ) - -[The Canary in the Gold Mine](http://github.com/nodejs/citgm) *(citgm)* is the Node.js projects smoke testing utility. It runs the test suite of top modules in the Node.js ecosystem to ensure that changes to Node.js do not break other people's code. It is used to test releases and controversial changes before they land. The Jenkins job that utilizes citgm can be [found on our CI](https://ci.nodejs.org/view/Node.js-citgm/job/citgm-smoker/). citgm is able to grab the source code of any module from the npm registry, install it's dependencies, and run it's test suite. citgm is shipped with a lookup table including over 70 of the top modules, it can automate the process of running all their test suites and report results in multiple formats. - -There are a number of ways in which citgm can be improved including: - -* optimizing performance - - parallelization - - introducing a cache -* improved ci environment - - testing by subsystem - - multi-jobs to test all release lines -* refactoring the logger -* adding new modules to be tested -* creating a website to display results - -This project has the ability to take a variety of paths depending on what you are interested in. - -Mentor in United States (NYC) - - ------------------------- - -**Node.js in Machine Learning** - -*Mentor:* [Priyanka Sulugodua Prakash Murthy](mailto:priyanka.sulugodu.prakash.murthy@intel.com) - -There is a package called TensorFlow https://www.tensorflow.org/ and a Node.js package for it -https://github.com/nikhilk/node-tensorflow - -The mentee should review and learn the node-tensorflow module to find what we can get from this. The goal of the project for the mentee would be to get familiar with the module and teach the mentoring team. diff --git a/locale/en/site.json b/locale/en/site.json index 10c316971196f..c05a61144636f 100644 --- a/locale/en/site.json +++ b/locale/en/site.json @@ -135,10 +135,6 @@ "education": { "link": "foundation/education", "text": "Education Initiatives" - }, - "outreachy": { - "link": "foundation/outreachy", - "text": "Outreachy + Node.js" } }, "getinvolved": { diff --git a/locale/fr/site.json b/locale/fr/site.json index 917b521e88ee4..c43616462c22c 100644 --- a/locale/fr/site.json +++ b/locale/fr/site.json @@ -129,10 +129,6 @@ "education": { "link": "foundation/education", "text": "Initiatives éducatives" - }, - "outreachy": { - "link": "foundation/outreachy", - "text": "Outreachy + Node.js" } }, "getinvolved": { diff --git a/locale/gl/site.json b/locale/gl/site.json index b9279c6e72ece..48413ee7d0c03 100644 --- a/locale/gl/site.json +++ b/locale/gl/site.json @@ -127,10 +127,6 @@ "education": { "link": "foundation/education", "text": "Iniciativas de Educación" - }, - "outreachy": { - "link": "foundation/outreachy", - "text": "Outreachy + Node.js" } }, "getinvolved": { diff --git a/locale/zh-cn/site.json b/locale/zh-cn/site.json index 1389b099001b1..664816a63bb08 100644 --- a/locale/zh-cn/site.json +++ b/locale/zh-cn/site.json @@ -131,10 +131,6 @@ "education": { "link": "foundation/education", "text": "教学行动" - }, - "outreachy": { - "link": "foundation/outreachy", - "text": "Outreachy + Node.js" } }, "getinvolved": {
