[DMP 2024]: Prepare official releases of TuxType and TuxMath with accessibility extensions for public access.

Nalin-x-Linux commented 6 months ago

Integrate accessibility into Tuxmath and Tuxtype

Description

During Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2013, we made TuxType and TuxMath accessible for visually impaired users. However, the current official versions lack these accessibility features. It's crucial to release a new official version of TuxType and TuxMath on all platforms.

Goals & Mid-Point Milestone

Goals

[x] Improve documentation around build
[ ] Fix mac build for m-X chips
[x] Check and update dependencies if needed. Most likely we will need to update SDL library.
[ ] Expose accessibility features in Tuxmath and Tuxtype
[ ] Fix existing bugs
[ ] Make an official release for GNU/Linux
[ ] Make official release for Microsoft Windows
[ ] Make official release for MacOS
[ ] Prepare and release official packages or installers for all platforms.
[ ] Releasing snap packages for ubuntu store

Setup/Installation

Respected Tux4Kids Maintainers @Nalin-x-Linux @deepakagg,

I am writing to express my interest in contributing to the Tux4Kids project and help address the double linked list doubling issue reported in Issue #21.

Having reviewed the requirements outlined in the issue, I believe my skills align well with the tasks at hand. I have a solid understanding of data structures, algorithms, and software development principles, which I've further honed through various projects, including those showcased on my LeetCode profile: https://leetcode.com/u/abhivoid/.

I am eager to learn more about the specific requirements and coding conventions used in the Tux4Kids project. If you provide some guidance, I would be happy to:

Analyze the existing code in detail to pinpoint the cause of the issue.
Develop a well-tested solution in C or C++ that adheres to the project's coding style.
Submit a pull request with clear documentation explaining my approach and the implemented changes.

I am available to discuss this further at your convenience. Thank you for your time and consideration.

I have some experience in C and SDL. I grew up using Tuxmath and Tuxtype. I would be very happy to contribute. I would enjoy integrating the accessibility features in Tuxmath and Tuxtype. I have experience in cross-compiling C for different platforms (except macOS) and producing installers. I can prepare packages for Linux (deb, rpm, AppImage), Windows, and Unix-like platforms.
