6 years ago Things that can be checked off:
The track has a page on the v2 site: https://v2.exercism.io/tracks/elisp The first exercise is auto_approve: true
Things that need to be completed:
- The
*.orgfiles indocs/need to be converted into*.mdmarkdown files - The track page needs a short description under the name (not starting with TODO) - this is the
blurbkey inconfig.json - The "About" section needs expanding into a friendly, colloquial, compelling introduction which follows the formatting guidelines
- The code snippet is too wide and too tall for the track's page (see https://v2.exercism.io/tracks/elisp)
- Some exercises (~8) need to be marked as
coreinconfig.json, and other non-core exercises can then haveunlocked_byset - Exercises need to have rough estimates of difficulty
- Exercises need have topics associated with them

There are a number of things we're going to want to check before the v2 site goes live. There are notes below that flesh out all the checklist items.
TODO)coreauto_approve: trueTrack landing page
The v2 site has a landing page for each track, which should make people want to join it. If the track page is missing, ping
@kytrinyxto get it added.Blurb
If the header of the page starts with
TODO, then submit a pull request to https://github.com/exercism/elisp/blob/master/config.json with ablurbkey. Remember to get configlet and runconfiglet fmt .from the root of the track before submitting.About section
If the "About" section feels a bit dry, then submit a pull request to https://github.com/exercism/elisp/blob/master/docs/ABOUT.md with suggested tweaks.
Formatting guidelines
In order to work well with the design of the new site, we're restricting the formatting of the
ABOUT.md. It can use:Additionally:
<br/>can be used to split a paragraph into lines without spacing between them, however this is discouraged.Code example
If the code example is too short or too wide or too long or too uninteresting, submit a pull request to https://github.com/exercism/ocaml/blob/master/docs/SNIPPET.txt with a suggested replacement.
Exercise metadata
Where the v1 site has a long, linear list of exercises, the v2 site has organized exercises into a small set of required exercises ("core").
If you update the track config, remember to get configlet and run
configlet fmt .from the root of the track before submitting.Topic and difficulty
Core exercises unlock optional additional exercises, which can be filtered by topic an difficulty, however that will only work if we add topics and difficulties to the exercises in the track config, which is in https://github.com/exercism/elisp/blob/master/config.json
Auto-approval
We've currently made any hello-world exercises auto-approved in the backend of v2. This means that you don't need mentor approval in order to move forward when you've completed that exercise.
Not all tracks have a hello-world, and some tracks might want to auto approve other (or additional) exercises.
Track mentors
There are no bullet points for this one :)
As we move towards the launch of the new version of Exercism we are going to be ramping up on actively recruiting people to help provide feedback. Our goal is to get to 100%: everyone who submits a solution and wants feedback should get feedback. Good feedback.

# When all of the boxes are ticked off, please close the issue.
