MDN/Development/Google Summer of Code 2013

Project statement

Build a Localization Dashboard for the Mozilla Developer Network (MDN) to help contributors view localization progress and find articles that need to be localized. The dashboard should be somewhat similar to the existing Revision Dashboard. Over the course of the summer, the student should build a minimum viable product and work with the MDN team to iterate on it, making as many improvements as time allows.

Considerations

Performance

Some of these features could be taxing on the server-side. Even the Revision Dashboard is having trouble with this. We will need to keep this in mind during implementation.

Description of Behavior

  • The values of the Difficulty column should be algorithmically determined. For example, longer content should be considered more difficult, less technical information should be considered more easy, etc.
