Taskcluster [0] is the new Mozilla CI that will in future be responsible to run every build and test for Firefox, Firefox TV, rust and other Mozilla projects. We are a small and passionate team engaged to make Taskcluster the best CI ever. | |||
taskcluster-tools [1] is a modern frontend for several tools and services provided by Taskcluster. If you are passionate about web frontend, this project is for you. During your internship, you will have a lot of fun hacking into the tools codebase [2] to make a lot of UI/UX improvements. | |||
The applicant must have good HTML, CSS and Javascript skills. Knowledge of React js is desired, but not required. | |||

===Automation of Taskcluster Documentation=== | |||
* Mentor: [https://mozillians.org/en-US/u/jonasfj/ Jonas Finnemann Jensen] | |||
Our task execution platform TaskCluster consists of many small services. | |||
We would like a system to which each component can upload its documentation in a reference format markdown for text, JSON for API references, etc. From the uploaded references we would then generate the entire documentation site. | |||
By uploading documentation and reference files from the services, we can have it automatically update when we deploy new features. | |||
Services already uploads some formal JSON references, but this needs more structure. | |||
Technically speaking: | |||
- A node.js module for uploading a directory of JSON files + a manifest | |||
- A service generating a static documentation site from uploaded documentation. | |||
Useful skills: | |||
- node.js | |||
- HTML/CSS/JS (react.js would be nice to have) | |||
- Some graphical design skills | |||
This is not a project about writing documentation, most of it already exists. It needs automatic deployment and structure. | |||
