FWIW: I didn't produce the content present here. I've just copy-pasted it from somewhere over the Internet, but I cannot remember exactly the original source. I was also not able to find the author's name, so I cannot give him/her the proper credit.

Contributing to Goby

  • Why: Goby is a Ruby framework that helps you build text-based RPGs. The owner of the repo (nskins) laid out a very nice issue that adds an enhancement and looks approachable.
  • What: We found a feature request at nskins/goby#64. It asks for the program to detect different seperators other than just semicolons.
  • We Need: to dig into Goby and get a better idea of how the code is generating games under-the-hood and then write tests for the desired functionality.
  • When We're Done: The owner of the repository suggested this feature, so it's probably likely that it will be accepted.

Contributing to CBRAIN

  • Why: We're not really sure what CBRAIN does... but we are excited to find out by diving into a simple enhancement for it.
