I’m interested. it looks like a fun and valuable thing to play with / work on. I also have the time to do so and am on the lookout for possible projects to work on. Barriers:
Not very experienced, so would have a learning curve on the basic things. clearer explanation for beginners or links to good stating places could be helpful, but i also don’t expect this to be too bad to tackle on my own.
I only have windows and the requirements seem to be either mac or linux. I probably would have tried setting it up locally otherwise.
Don’t have much experience with JS or react—so similarly to the first point, links to good starting places could be helpful, but figuring it out on my own probably wouldn’t be too bad.
Not sure how relevant this still is since it’s from 3 years ago, but thought I’d err on the side of showing my interest rather than not.
Definitely appreciate the show of interest. I’ve become less optimistic about open source in the past few years, but I do still think it’s good on the margin to have people fluent with the LW dev setup.
I think I can’t commit in the foreseeable future to doing tutoring or helping that much with the setup. If you were on mac/linux I’d recommend going ahead and trying to install the setup and see how it went. I’m not sure what to recommend for windows. I’ll ask other LW devs and see if they expect that to possibly-go-smoothly, or if it’s overdetermined to be a huge pain.
