GSoC 2021 — Zulip

This summer, I worked on migrating our JavaScript codebase to TypeScript. This involved refactoring code, adding more strict checks for types, updating tests, and resolving circular dependencies in our codebase.

TypeScript

Below are the PRs that converted a bunch of modules to TypeScript. So far, most of the modules with zero or a couple of dependencies are converted to TypeScript. Currently, the migration is stuck, making the codebase use message[TOPIC_NAME] where TOPIC_NAME is subject instead of message.topic. After that, the util module (PR #19247) followed by the people module can be converted to TypeScript allowing us to convert other modules that depend on people.

  • #18566: Convert most modules with zero module imports to typescript.
  • #18595: Convert keydown_util to TypeScript.
  • #18840: Convert page_params, i18n, common, ui_report, and blueslip modules to TS.
  • #18932: Convert more modules to TypeScript.
  • #19010: Convert padded_widget, csrf, loading, components, and ui_util to TS.
  • #19178: Convert message_parser, password_quality, watchdog, composer_error and upload_widget to TS
  • #19419: ts: Convert settings_config, settings_data modules to TypeScript.

Other PRs that are awating review:

  • #19504: ts: Convert timerender, sub_store module to TypeScript.
  • #19463: ts: Convert user_groups module to TypeScript.

Below are is the list of PRs that worked on breaking circular dependencies, general code refactors and migrations to newer APIs that using deprecated API:

  • #18674: Use Event.key, Event.button instead of deprecated Event.keyCode and Event.which.
  • #19317: settings_data: Break circular dependency with people.
  • #19050: js: Split out muting_users module from muting.
  • #19195: js: Split muting_ui into muted_topics_ui and muted_users_ui.
  • #18958: js: Export variables instead of setting them on window.
  • #19099: util: Remove unused code for lower_bound.
  • #18660: settings_org: Fix incorrect selector for the save changes button.
  • #18924: github-actions: Ensure cancel previous run job never fails.
  • #18689: Follow-up cleanups
