6 years ago That sounds like a reasonable way to go. I keep making these instructions better and better, so please take a look:

I feel strongly that we should align things first in a design doc rather than code or a prototype: it is much faster to iterate and to give feedback on a design doc with wireframes than in PRs and code. I am very confident that the hard part of the problem here isn't how to code but how to design (and that will remain true too once you get out of school, so I think this is useful advice), so share a design doc with me and lets iterate on that before you show me a prototype or code.

Hi @samuelgoto https://github.com/samuelgoto ! As suggested by @redblobgames https://github.com/redblobgames on the Gitter channel, I have been working on creating an interactive static blog page to demonstrate my abilities to implement a design. (Point 6- Prototype https://github.com/aimacode/aima-javascript/wiki/GSOC-2018) I do understand that you require students to portray design skills and the understanding to create visualisations for the reader. I studied Chapter 4 and went through the prototype explaining Genetic Algorithm. I have a better design idea to improve the implementation and enhance the understanding of the algorithm for a reader. I like the use of colours http://aimacode.github.io/aima-javascript/4-Beyond-Classical-Search/ to explain the working of the algorithm, however, it seems complex and confusing. This has also been mentioned as a possible improvement https://gist.github.com/Rishav159/9b33681a3029c7c930a7c60d4a2aee1e#future-work. In my opinion, to understand the implementation of the algorithm, the reader must understand the basic steps involved - Selection, Crossover, Mutation to see the final result. I would love to share a design document and narrative of the same. Let me know if I'm on the right track. Also, although it is a process later in this timeline, I have created a prototype model of a clean and simple blog and hosted it on Github Pages. Should I share it right away? Thankyou!
