Web compatibility tables (WCT) are one of the key feature of MDN. It allows users to know more about the reliability of any web standard features and to ease the use of web technologies. Currently, the data are gather and maintain "by hand". Thanks to our awesome community we have some good data. However, this is hardly sustainable as the number of technologies is growing as well a the complexity of the implementation. We start to face some difficulties to stay up to date and to provide and improved content around those data.

Goals

Goals and how we see the project is elaborated in the Vision Document

NOTE: Initial goal elaboration is commented in this page.


Get Involved

Any one who wish to get involved with this project is welcome. This page will provide information about the project and its progress. Everything is discuss directly on the dev-mdn mailing list. Schedule and progress are summarized on the the mdn mailing list.

Who's in charge?

Responsibilities for the project are define through the following RASCI matrix:

The main contact points are the following:

Functional discussion (Features prioritization, data, content) occurred mainly on

  • IRC on the #mdn channel.
  • E-mail on the dev-mdc mailing list.

Technical discussion (Architecture, QA, UX) occurred mainly on

  • IRC on the #mdndev channel.
  • E-mail on the dev-mdn mailing list.

How to help?

Depending on your skills, this project offer many contribution opportunities:

Development

The data repository is a full Django application, so if you know Python, Django and obviously HTML/CSS/JS you're welcome to help

UX & Design

Displaying and contributing data in a way that make them understandable and usable by anyone is quite challenging. If your skilled in design and UX your help is more than welcome.

Data Management

Our data are currently hosted on MDN itself and we need some help to clean them, normalized them, and do the transition to our new data repository. If you want us to move faster, this where your help is needed and it doesn't required any particular skills :)
