important : Future work on canSnippet

ademcan commented 10 years ago

Hi guys, a short post to clarify the actual situation and future plans. First of all I would like to thank you for your participation for improving canSnippet, I really appreciate it. I needed a bit of time to get used to Github, now it should be fine (thanks to @yjarosz and @ymouscaz) :)

I created a "dev" branch on the project. We will mainly work on the “dev” branch, I will merge everything to the master when the following milestone (or version) will be reached. For now, we have a v1.0 which works quiet well, I will thus accept only security improvements on the master branch until the v2.0.

Some plans for the v2.0:

add the support of all the plugins and themes from prism.js
add the adapted graphical interface to let user apply prism.js mod to their snippets
better CSS for mobiles (which already exists but needs improvements) and cleaning the actual CSS
new theme for canSnippet, something less green and non-flat
what about the languages not supported on prism.js (I had a request about the Powershell programming language support) ? We can also contribute to prism.js by adding the support of a new language, let's see how feasible it is.
tag support
search API, to let users access their snippet from their preferred IDE

[FR] Je vous remercie pour votre participation, c'est vraiment génial. Je vous demande de faire toute communication importante en anglais, le français n'est pas interdit bien sur mais cela permettra une plus grande accessibilité du code et de la documentation. Je viens de créer une branche "dev", elle nous permettra de faire avancer le projet jusqu'à ce que la liste des changements pour la version suivante soit atteinte. Je mergerai alors les deux branches pour une version stable toujours disponible. J'ai aussi ajouté une liste de todo pour la v2, il n'est pas impératif de tout mettre en place, nous verrons selon l'avancement. De plus, je voudrais que l'application reste le plus simple d'utilisation possible, KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid), donc certaines améliorations qui demandent beaucoup de changements ou de démarches de la part de l'utilisateurs prendront un peu de temps à être intégrée.

i have add the plan work into the wiki

ademcan commented 10 years ago

Cool, thank you. At some point I am also planning to create a separate project page for canSnippet. We can then copy the wiki, documentation, installation... there, I don't want to be too much dependent on github ;) I will work on it soon,

bawaaaaah commented 10 years ago

can you explain all functionality of the API? only for consulting or consulting and editing? need a login? does'nt need any king of login? api key? auth by api key and revocable private key? etc...

qwertygc commented 10 years ago

Just few proposals: add language eg LaTeX or Bash proposal a auto-connexion. Think

ademcan commented 10 years ago

To add new languages it depends on prism.js, I can only add the supported languages listed here : http://prismjs.com/download.html By auto-connection do you mean auto-recognition of the language ? If yes, it is a good idea, we can rely on some language-specific keywords. Thanks

qwertygc commented 10 years ago

By auto connection i would like said automatic login. In french : connexion automatique avec une checkbox. I don't know the english word for that.

ademcan commented 10 years ago

Ah yes you are right, this is a good idea, I never thought about it.
