ESFiddle - esfiddle.net

We are in the process of rewriting the frontend in React and the backend in Node and Typescript as well as a huge redesign and refocus into teaching.
The project is a bit influx at the minute as I do not have any time to work on the project (family stuff), so I am looking to hand this over to someone or help any contributors who would like to contribute.

If you are looking for something to contribute to that is a bit meatier than just updating docs or tests, then this is the project for you.

Feel free to raise an issue on github if you are having trouble getting started.
github.com/esfiddle/site - repo for the frontend
github.com/esfiddle/api - repo for the backend

So the main way is to help out with the API if that is your expertise. Alternatively, if you'd like to dive in React, then there is a lot of work to do! github.com/esfiddle/site

The main thing on the site is to start work on the editor page. It should work similar to esfiddle.net! Let me know if you need any more help. Any thing you can do would be a massive help! :)
