Who's looking for open source contributors? (April 30th edition)

Shamelessly copying Ben Halpern's most recent post.

Find something to work on or promote your project here.

Please shamelessly promote your project. Everyone who posted in previous months is welcome back this month, as always.

Happy Coding!

I'll start off by sharing an open source project that my consultancy helped start for a non-profit called Office Moms & Dads. The app helps schedule/notify volunteers to come in and spend time with kids while they are being placed in the foster care system.

From their website:

Office Moms & Dads is a grassroots volunteer-based organization that serves foster children who have recently been removed from their homes.

Foster kid support is an area I'd love to contribute to. I'll bet others would too, but might not realize that's what this project is about with its unrelated project name.

Thanks for posting about it; I'll take a look!

I've been working on live-cricketscores.com - I'm finally at a point where the site covers the basics.

Link to repo: github.com/campbellbartlett/live-c...

Link to site: live-cricketscores.com/

Written in Angular and hosted on netlify.

Still to be added:

  • A section for news coverage
  • A section with player profiles
  • Graphs / wagon wheels for batting stats

If you're a cricket fan and love Angular then please get in touch - I'm keen to grow contributors and make the site something special.

Here's a picture:

Awesome. Have you had a look at the project on Github? I haven’t made a lot of changes recently, because the core functionality is all in place. But it would be awesome to start adding new components like a score worm or a batters wagon wheel. If there anything else you think could improve the site, open an issue on Github!

Sure. Will go over it this weekend and start opening issues with possible new features.

Hey, that would be great!
Do you want to get in touch on GitHub with some of your ideas?

all-keyboardevent-keys is an NPM package that attempts to gather‒you guessed it‒all keyboardevent keys.

Currently the library is limited to an en-US keyboard and needs contributions from other users around the world, particularly:

  • China
  • India
  • France
  • Germany
  • England
  • [insert your country here]

Checkout the contributing guidelines here.

Sounds interesting. What would be a usecase for this library?

It's a dependency of another library, onkey-event-manager, that uses it for keyboardevent key validation.

I would love to see more collaborators joining my efforts with MikroORM! So far it has been pretty much one man show.

MikroORM is TypeScript ORM for Node.js based on Data Mapper, Unit of Work and Identity Map patterns. Currently it supports MongoDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite databases, but more can be supported via custom drivers right now.

repo: github.com/B4nan/mikro-orm
docs: b4nan.github.io/mikro-orm/
introductory article: dev.to/b4nan/introducing-mikroorm-...

Feel free to join the slack channel (or ping me here) to discuss how you can help! I will be more than happy to assist.

I'd love to see some contributions on Cast-Bucket - an open source podcast listening app, for developers. The app is in its early stages of development, and would be great to have some help going forward.

Its written in React Native and React Native Web, and I've strived to achieve as much code sharing as possible between the app across platforms.

I'm working on Ctor - a smart contract management solution that enables developers and teams to effectively manage their lifecycle.
github.com/wslyvh/ctor

The initial prototype is ready.

Plan for the upcoming month

  • Update UI, for more flexibility and additional features in the future.
  • Prepare for different network configurations (deploy to permissioned networks).

Open to any contributions. I'd be happy to help/learn anyone considering to get started with Blockchain development (Ethereum, Solidity, Web3, Smart contracts).
Default stack is MERN/TypeScript Stack.

Hi!

We're making Views, a new language to implement interfaces and enable designers to contribute to the final application. Views morphs to React and React Native.

Any help regarding the morpher morph.views.tools or the docs docs.views.tools would be really appreciated!

Thanks!
