[tde-devels] Re: TDE Development for Newbies

Hi Mike, I have seen this with vanilly neovim config, I get it every time I fire up a quick VM for testing. It's a matter of config, although I don't recall which option it is. Maybe a quick google search with give you the answer. No worries, when you are ready. Anyway we don't use a lot of C++, just the basic. I like to call it "C with classes" as it used to be called initially :-) A lot of modern stuff is not use. Btw, TDE use c++11 standard, so anything newer than that is not officially supported. Well, there are plenty of ways to help. - translations, but for this task users are probably already doing great thanks to TWTW - documentation updates: either for applications or website/wiki - there is a long standing task that was to get the wiki to use the same color theme as the main website. It is something that was left over when we redesigned the site about 10 years ago. Maybe you can exchange some ideas with E.Liddell, who did the original work. Another good way to contribute "chore" tasks and at the same time get you familiar with the building process, is to hunt for warnings in building logs and fix them. We have quite a bit of them, many are probably simple to fix. This will give you a change to build packages, make small changes and get familiar with the overall dev process. Just an idea, in the end it is still a chore task, but it would help to provide cleaner code. Reach out on the dev IRC chat on libera, easier to discuss there I guess. The chat is logged, so you can leave comments and I can comment back later if I am not online. Cheers Michele
