What should I learn in order to contribute #46

WittmannF commented 4 years ago

Hello, I started learning javascript and yesterday I learned the very basics for creating a chrome extension with this tutorial: https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/getstarted

However, Urplus is waay another level. I coudn't understand anything when I was checking the source code. My field is data science, so I am more comfortable with python. The source code seems to be a mix of Python and JS.

I would love to get suggestions of materials or topics that I should learn in order to understand the source code, and eventually, contribute as well.

Thanks!

UrPlus is written in VueJS in front end and Python in backend. Anything dealing with the interaction between the extension and the browser is written in VueJS. To acquire a good touch at that, I'll suggest you to get along with front end tools first... then understand how VueJS helps create interfaces, after that, you'll be good to go.
