Not directly related but, is there a chance that you could keep track of outstanding issues and "bugs" that haven't been been started on already in some kind of a master list? It's a bit hard to follow along with the different PRs and issues as an outsider when they are scattered all over. Just a thought.

Does this help? https://github.com/facebook/react/issues/7925

rthor commented 7 years ago

Definitely, I saw this but then there are other lists as well. They are maybe just personal subtasks, like https://github.com/facebook/react/issues/8181 and https://github.com/facebook/react/issues/7906 f.ex.? Just wondering were find tasks to work on without stepping on someone's toes :)

It's pretty tricky to do Fiber without stepping on each other's toes right now because everything is too interconnected. Right now it is tricky even for team members to coordinate. And the codebase is sufficiently complex that it's hard to contribute right now in a meaningful timeframe without also working full time on it. It will get easier in a month or two as soon as most pieces are in place and we stop blocking each other every day, but for now implementing this asap is a top priority.

All issues without PRs on facebook/react#7925 are up for grabs but we can't promise we'll take your implementation precisely because we have less time to work with community contributions at this time. The best strategy right now would be to see which tests are failing and fix low hanging fruit, like @rricard did in https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/8156.

Sorry about this mess!
