Thanks to everyone who attended the devhub meeting…

Thanks to everyone who attended the devhub meeting. Logs are here. The following was discussed and decided:

Markup in inline docs

The markup in the inline docs is currently inconsistent which makes it difficult to parse. After discussion, it was agreed that markdown would be the best option. @DrewAPicture is going to report back to the inline docs team on that tonight.

Search

@toscho has been working on the search. We decided that it would be best to provide search filters so that people can filterFilter Filters are one of the two types of Hooks https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Hooks. They provide a way for functions to modify data of other functions. They are the counterpart to Actions. Unlike Actions, filters are meant to work in an isolated manner, and should never have side effects such as affecting global variables and output. for function, hook, or class. We all would like a good autocomplete 🙂

Other stuff

@krogsgard has joined the team and is going to be helping with theme development.

The following actions need to be worked on for next week:

Actions

  • @toscho to add patch for search #172
  • @krogsgard to turn code reference landing page into markup and css
  • @krogsgard to get set up locally for developing for devhub
  • @saracannon to produce final designs for devhub landing page and handbooks
  • @sams to figure out where all of the devhub junk (PSDs, files etc) should live and put them there

As an aside, since we’ve got @toscho and @rarst set up for developing on wp.org, we’ll put together a document (probably for the make/metaMeta Meta is a term that refers to the inside workings of a group. For us, this is the team that works on internal WordPress sites like WordCamp Central and Make WordPress. handbook) that will contain info on setting up a wp.org development environment.

Chat as usual next Tuesday at 16:00 UTC.
