This week’s class discussion on open source projects that were not software related was very interesting. I never have thought about how open source can be applied outside of the software world. For this assignment, I chose to look into Open Source Malaria, which works on providing an open source solution to developing a cure for malaria. Other people in the class talked about many different projects such as Open Source Pharmaceuticals, Open Source Malaria’s parent project, Open Bionics, which seeks to develop prosthetics in an open-source way, and Project Gutenberg, which is an open source library project.
This week, my group has made a lot of progress for our open source project. I successfully made and merged a PR for a code change and am now looking for other issues to take on. My group members both have working solutions for issues but have yet to be assigned the issue. Once they are assigned the issue, they are both ready to make a PR. While waiting to be assigned, they are actively looking for other issues to take on.
Watching everyones’ presentations this week has been really awesome. I really enjoyed getting to see what everyone else has been working on for the whole semester and the progress they were able to make. I was particularly interested in the Godot presentation. I used to be into game development and used Unity extensively. I would love to get back into game development and would consider using and possibly contributing to Godot in the future. I also liked seeing other groups’ progress on projects that I have personally used and still use, such as FreeCodeCamp and Pandas.
I was also happy with my group’s progress over the course of the semester. I think that things started off slow while trying to make MuseScore work. In retrospect, we should have changed projects much earlier but we sort of stubbornly tried to make it work. I think that I can take this as a learning lesson to not ignore red flags in a project down the road. However, we were able to last minute switch our project to Oppia and make some meaningful progress. I plan on continuing contributing to the project.
