Open Source Collaborative Tools: Communication, Wikis, Issue Tracking

Practical

  1. Create a page entry with information on yourself
  2. Create a team project on GitHub.
    • If you don't have one, create an account on GitHub.
    • Create teams of three or four.
    • One of the three team members creates a project and invites the other ones to the project.
      • The project would be a software project idea of the team.
    • Describe the project on the GitHub wiki.
      • Use as many wiki formatting components as you can.
      • Create at least two wiki pages.
    • Create and link a Gist snippet on the wiki.
    • Go through the project description created by the team on your right side and add issues (inconsistent formatting, typos, unclear statements etc.).
    • Solve issues reported to you by the team on your left side.
