Create HTML/JS website to accept paypal/stripe/patreon donations

[vishwarajanand]

Deliverables:

1. A website in HTML/JS which enables users to donate to a given account in Paypal, Stripe and Patreon. For now, you can use your own custom account to demo that the website is functional.
2. Please keep the demo configurable, so that the same module can be reused later with minimal changes to support GirlScript donations.
3. Make a folder demos/donations/[your-name]/[all-your-codefiles-goes-here-****].

Evaluation criteria:

1. Grade A: Neatly done, can be integrated easily.
2. Grade B: The task is completed, but integration needs some changes.
3. Grade C: The task is completed, but we may need to improve.

When you submit the PR, please provide screenshots to show that the PR actually works.

I want to work on this

[vishwarajanand]

@devshiva619 Go ahead! Other participants, you can also submit MR to this issue till it is open. Please note that we welcome multiple submissions from different participants. We would evaluate your PRs accordingly. The best fit for our use-case shall be taken forward for integration to final website.

Alternatively, if you feel that the issue is too big and you want to collaborate with your group to do so. Please create a repository of your own and once completed, share your repo's link here. All contributions are welcome!

What about the points, are all people getting points, like which all will be Good ones?

[vishwarajanand]

Everyone who submits PRs would be granted some points and depending on total aggregated points, I think there are some rewards to be given at the end.

As a mentor, it's much more manageable to give grades as of now. Don't worry about the scoring of grades, we would keep participants updated eitherways.

I would also like to work on this issue @vishwarajanand and how to get myself assigned ?

[megha070]

I would like to work on this sir !

[iriyagupta]

We have to submit the PRs till 6 or before 6 ? @vishwarajanand

[vishwarajanand]

Issues would be open till the end of the program, so that the avenues to learn even for beginners are always open.

[codestryker]

I will also work on this

[codestryker]

Sir,what type of website we are creating and what will be its functionality

[vishwarajanand]

You can consider https://djangogirls.org/ as a template. But we would have several modifications/chanegs on the go.

[devesh-verma]

@vishwarajanand hey in this you want us to make just a static website for the issue for you want a functional website which can accept payments

[vishwarajanand]

Any website would work, even a static website.

Just follow two points:

1. Avoid overcomplicating things, keep the code minimal.
2. Keep the code configurable so that the payments can be later pointed to GirlScript's donations account.

[vishwarajanand]

You do not need to implement the donation payment process by yourself. For example, Once you have a Paypal account ready, you can use the account to get a donate button code which can be embedded in a HTML. For reference, check this: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/paypal-payments-standard/integration-guide/donate_step_1/

[devesh-verma]

@vishwarajanand thanks a lot for telling me this, I was implementing stripe payment with nodejs 😄

[vishwarajanand]

Good that we discussed it, in general before starting to implement a solution it's better to discuss the different ways a task can be done and how you are thinking to do it. This avoids over-work and sometimes brings up a very simple solution to complicated problems.

In Agile world, people brainstorm ideas before implementation and in waterfall development practices, people tend to write developer design documents.
