[BlueOcean] Roadmap/Issues for contribution

[Sundar]

Hey BlueOcean Devs,

It is really exciting to see new BlueOcean which brings new UX for Jenkins users.

I am looking for Blueocean roadmap/bugracking system to explore ways to contribute. Can some one give some pointer where to start?

Thanks!!

Hi Sundar,

Great to hear that you are exited about Blue Ocean and want to contribute!

We are using the issues.jenkins-ci.org "blueocean-plugin" component to track the work. If you are interested on a ticket please comment to express your interest and I'll make sure that one of our developers can get you up and running.

I need to publish a more formal roadmap but Jenkins.io/projects/blueocean is a good description for what we want to do for the 1.0.

Is there anything in particular you would like to work on?

Cheers
James

Hey James,

Thanks for the pointer!

I am looking into the issues currently and would like to start with small fixes, get familiar with architecture and structure of the project - and later incrementally contribute on new ideas/development.

Do you know if there is any list of beginner defects to work on? Appreciate any pointers.

Thanks,

Sundar

Hi Sundar, great!

For beginner defects, there probably are a few. Often things that may appear easy may be annoyingly hard (but perhaps it helps teach things on the way, so worth it), so don't go crazy over something you think should be easy but it ends up hard!

Some recent examples: 

https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-36102

https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-36065

https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-36100

But really - anything on the blueocean-plugin component that you wanted to look at that makes sense to you would be a good way to learn, or perhaps you encountered a new unknown problem.

This pair would also be a really good one as it spans both Jenkins and Blue Ocean
