Twitter CLI #17

Closed sferik closed 8 years ago

sferik commented 9 years ago

Name and Contact of the Project Mentor: Erik Michaels-Ober, @sferik, sferik@gmail.com

Name of the Project: Twitter CLI

URL: https://github.com/sferik/t

About the Project: A command-line power tool for Twitter.

Suitable for beginners? Yes.

What are issues/features students may work on? The students would be reimplementing the existing Twitter command-line interface in the Crystal programming language. Crystal is a language with similar syntax to Ruby but with many optimizations that make it a better choice for CLIs. The current Ruby implementation would serve as a working specification of the correct behavior. There is also a comprehensive spec suite with 590 examples (99.3% coverage).

I originally wasn’t planning to submit this project but then @janl tweeted that it didn’t need to be a Ruby project, so here it is. I would be very excited to coach a team on Crystal and, of course, teaching some Ruby would be necessary as well. Perhaps @asterite or @waj would be interested to serve as remote mentors. That would be awesome!

Hi, Erik!

We would like to work with your project, is it still possible? I also sent you an email, but I thought that a message here would work as well :) Please, let us know.

Hi Erik,

I would like to work with your project. Can you tell me what should I do to participate?

Hi all. Feel free to submit your application with this project. I will only have time to mentor the team that is selected by the Rails Girls Summer of Code organizers.
