Simplifying the Workflow for Processing Libraries, Tools, and Modes
- This project is all about improving developer experience by simplifying the workflow of libraries, tools, and modes.
- The Processing library template is a Github repository that developers can use to create new libraries for Processing.
- Functionality that has been added includes installing the library into your local Processing environment and a Github workflow that adds the required release artifacts to your Github releases.
- To make interacting with the contributions data more intuitive, we converted what was algorithmically-stored data into a database.
- With this process, the contributor provides the url to the properties file in a Github issue and a Github workflow is triggered, resulting in a pull request with the new contribution added to the database that the Processing librarian can review.
- This new database is a database file in yaml format. The format is a list of objects, where each object is a contribution.
- The Processing Foundation is a work environment where you can show your artistic flair without shame. It’s a place where creativity and diversity are celebrated, not just discussed.
- This work was done in collaboration with Katsuya Endoh, and under the mentorship of Stef Tervelde.
- By applying the general principles of “automate what can be automated” and “make it intuitive,” we’ve made significant strides to simplify the workflow for adding new contributions.
- If you’ve ever considered applying for a Processing Foundation fellowship or grant, it's a rare chance to combine technical growth with meaningful work in an inclusive and inspiring environment.
