You know all those #hacktoberfest repos where you can contribute code snippets to learn how to make pull requests. Why not do that with a more long term project called Sample Programs in Every Language. In addition to code snippets, we automate our wiki, and we try to write articles to explain each of the available snippets. If that sounds interesting, check us out!

We're sitting comfortably with 88 stars and 50 forks, so we're still a small project which means you'd have a ton of opportunities to make an impact.

MojiScript is always looking for contributors. There are a bunch of first timer issues issues up for grabs here: github.com/joelnet/MojiScript/issues

You can also contribute by playing with the language and providing feedback!

Cheers!

I hope I'm not too late!

Reshort - write less in your actions!

Intro

Hi, everyone! I developed this simple little lib (my first lib!) to help me reduce some repetition in my actions. I have some ideas of new implementations and I just want to see if anyone is interested in this at all or find this project interesting and useful. If you have any constructive critiques I would be very pleased to hear it. If you have some interest in the project and can help, it would be awesome!

The problem:

Let's say that I want to fetch a list of books. Using redux, I have to create three actions:

1. the first one is the "REQUEST" action;
2. the second one is the "SUCCESS" action;
3. the third one is the "FAIL" action.

Now let's say that I want to fetch a list of authors. Or a list of users. Or a list of bookmarks... This pattern of REQUEST-SUCCESS-FAIL can become very repetitive and verbose.

The solution

Using reshort you can create one "complete action" using one line, instead of three. Like so:

import reshort from "reshort";

const productsActions = reshort("Products");

productsActions("request")
// {
//   type: "GET_PRODUCTS"
// }

productsActions("success", {test: 123})
// {
//   type: "GET_PRODUCTS_SUCCESSFUL",
//   payload: { test: 123 }
// }

productsActions("fail", {test: "error"})
// {
//   type: "GET_PRODUCTS_FAILURE",
//   payload: { test: "error" }
// }

Muxer is always looking for contributors. It's an open-source events aggregator build using React and Python. Everyone is welcome to contribute and we have lots of first timer issues for #hacktoberfest. Although if you don't see something you like and can think of an improvement, code, documentation, feature, or something else we are open to all ideas and incorporate almost all issues / PRs.

There are a range of labeled issues with #hacktoberfest for React, Flask, and more. At present, Muxer is localized to Belfast but we more to allow every city to list events on Muxer, or even host their own.

Hello everyone!

Result For C++ has seen several improvements from last week. Several new functions were added:

• map()
• map_err()
• expect()
• unwrap_err()

All methods now have a const counterpart (except for or() and and()) and const references are used as arguments wherever possible.

If you like what you hear, you can check out the repository:

#include "result.hpp"

...

SDLImageWrapper is C++ wrapper around SDL_Texture to provide an easy to use API and automated clean up through RAII.

A few new things were added including the ability to flip and rotate the image.

#include "sdl-image-wrapper.hpp"
...

Libpixmap is an easy to use C library that allows you create, open and manipulate pixels of PPM image formats.

Not much has been updated since then but documentation has been updated.

#include "pixmap.h"
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
}
