Adding Eclipse page
by Alexander Kurtakov 06 Jun '16

06 Jun '16

Hi everyone, I somehow missed the nice site targeting developers. As an Eclipse and Fedora guy spending a lot of time on integration issue I would like to have Eclipse listed on the tools page. Content I'm looking to have there is: *) basic info - howto install, basic usage *) plugins shipped into fedora - if the page grows too much it can be split *) fedora specific tools - eclipse fedorapackager[1], abrt integration [2] and others if/when they arrive So how do you like the idea? Any recommendation for the place to put it? I'm looking towards tools page (where DevAssistant page is) but I would definetely need someone with better writing and design skills to beautify the "raw" content we will create.

Preparing a new release of Fedora Developer Portal - asking for feedback
by Adam Samalik 28 Apr '16

28 Apr '16

Hello Everyone, we have prepared a new release of Fedora Developer Portal, and we would like to hear your feedback before pushing it into production. If everything goes fine, we would like to make the release on Monday, April 25th. This email is the first of its kind. I would like to send it every time before release - to make sure, that we involve everyone who might be interested. This time, I have also cc-ed 'websites' and 'devel' lists. All future emails about new releases will go to the 'developer-portal' mailing list only. Current version: https://developer.fedoraproject.org/ New release in staging: https://developer.stg.fedoraproject.org/ What's new: 1) Design - refreshed look with more uniform layout - images in the header have been compressed 2) 'Edit this page' button on every page - clicking this button gets you to the github repo, where you can edit the content directly in your web browser and submit a pull-request 3) Including empty pages - pages are shown with 'help needed' badge - goal of this is to encourage people/make it easier to contribute content 4) Start section - including guides about Arduino and mobile applications using Google Android Studio 5) Share your knowledge banner on each page - with link to our contributing guides: https://developer-portal.github.io/ 6) Using Google Analytics - disabled 'demographics and interest reports' - disabled 'enhanced link attribution' - disabled 'remarketing' - disabled 'advertising reporting features' - basically, I want to use it only to track views and to see what is most popular I welcome any feedback or comments. Thank you! Have a great day, Adam Samalik -- Adam Šamalík --------------------------- Associate Software Engineer Red Hat

Adding "Architecture" section in Fedora Developer Portal
by Sinny Kumari 01 Apr '16

01 Apr '16

Hi, Post Devconf 2016, I had a short conversation with Petr Hracek regarding adding content for Secondary architectures[1] in Fedora. I liked the idea behind developer portal creation and the way currently it looks like. Few people know how to work with Fedora Secondary architectures (e.g. building packages, fixing architecture specific build failures, getting access to a secondary architecture machines). One of the main reason for adding Secondary Architectures content is to provide all sorts of required and updated information to developers or newcomers at one place. While writing about Secondary Architectures for developer portal, I noticed that it doesn't fit well in any of the existing sections (taken from master branch) which is Start a Project, Get tools, Languages & databases, Deploy and distribute. Meanwhile, I thought why not create a new section which is dedicated to Architectures in general. A new section with name Architectures make sense to me where we can include: * Information for all architectures on which Fedora deal with * We can have three sub-sections: * Primary Architectures - ARM v7, x86_64, i686 * Secondary Architectures - PowerPc, s3909x, AArch64 * Other Architectures - Not yet supported in Fedora e.g. Fedora Remix for ARM * Each architectures will be explained separately w.r.t. working with that arch in Fedora * Including common build failures in packages and possible reasons of failures will also be useful for a package maintainers to fix build failures quickly. This is a draft proposal as per my working experience with Fedora. I have worked a bit on it and attached a screenshot in email how this section would look like. I understand that work is required to make UI consistent with developer portal. I would like to get your opinion/ feedback so that further work can be done to see it available on Fedora Developer Portal. Thanks, Sinny [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures#Secondary_Architectures -- http://sinny.io/
