CLOSED

This feature was identified for the kuma 1.0 release & has been archived.

Summary

The MDN makes heavy use of programmable templates. Currently, these templates are built using MindTouch's DekiScript language, which is based on Lua and in many respects very similar to JavaScript. These templates need to be migrated to the new site losslessly along with all other content.

More information:

• A list of templates we use
  • This is not a complete list but it does include a majority of them.
  • This might be a more complete list, over 500 or so listed.
• DekiScript reference
  • This includes information on the objects providing access to site and page information, and will give some insight into the types of functionality we need.
