Yeah, it says hackers are trying to get my passwords.

We're doing maintenance, don't worry. You are getting a SSL certificate error because our site isn't online.

Hi. I'm rather new to OpenSprites development but I'd love to help.

Anything that I could get started on?

• ES6 and parts of ES7 (async/await) through Traceur (both backend and frontend)
  
• Node.js (server scripts)
  
• Express (http library)
  
• Handlebars / HTML5 (templated HTML / frontend)
  
• Stylus (CSS preprocessor / frontend)
  
• MongoDB through MongooseJS (database)

Hello! Glad you're interested in the project!

The current iteration of OpenSprites is located at: https://github.com/OpenSprites/OpenSprites-next

We use the following libraries/technologies

• ES6 and parts of ES7 (async/await) through Traceur (both backend and frontend)
  
• Node.js (server scripts)
  
• Express (http library)
  
• Handlebars / HTML5 (templated HTML / frontend)
  
• Stylus (CSS preprocessor / frontend)
  
• MongoDB through MongooseJS (database)
  

I recommend you familiarize yourself with these (or some of these, if there's a specific area you'd like to help with) if you haven't already. (I learned enough of Mongo, Stylus, and Handlebars to use them in a few hours, so it's not that hard)

Then, you'll need to set up a local development copy of OpenSprites. First, I recommend you make a fork of the repository. Then follow the instructions in the readme file using your fork for the clone URL.

Once you have a forked development copy running, check out the issue tracker for things that need to be done.

If you feel like you can implement something in one of the issues, make a comment on the issue tracker. Then, implement whatever it is, and make a pull request containing your changed markup or code.
We'll review the pull request. If we feel it meets our standards for style and semantics (which are, to be honest, pretty low), we'll accept it. Otherwise we'll ask you to fix whatever we feel can be improved and update the pull request.

And you did write Tymoji…

Lastly, setup a .env file in this format, making sure to create the respective database and username/password:

db_host=localhost
db_name=next
db_user=username
db_pass=password

db_file_storage=true

project_id=115307769
session_secret=thisandagainplsexplain

server_port=3000
