Here are some fields where you can help the pas2js project. If you want to help give us a note on the mailing list, so we can help you.
Spread the word
Post on social media, organize meetings
Answer newbie question on forums and mailing lists
- Official mailing list (English): http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pas2js
- Pas2js board on Lazarus forum: http://forum.lazarus-ide.org/index.php/board,76.0.html
Write an overview, what units/packages already exist and what they provide
For example a wiki page with a list of all units and their classes with one or two sentences for each unit/class.
Easier quick start
- Write a better installer
- or a better wiki page how to quick start from nil to the first webapp.
- or extend pas2jsdsgn with a button to download and setup pas2js
- or a script to create rpm/deb/dmg packages
Lazarus help
Help for pas2js units on F1:
- fpdoc files
- or external help entries
Simple HOWTOs
- Wiki: Register a user in the wiki and write a page how to use pas2js with library X, or how to port Delphi code, or how to use pas2js in editor Y, etc
- or create a Youtube tutorial
Write external classes for importing JS libraries
- If a JS library has an IDL, use the webidl tool to auto create a basic Pascal unit for it, and if needed improve it manually
- Use class2pas unit to create a rough Pascal representation, then use the documentation to fill the gaps (create some types).
Help in compiler
The whole compiler is open source, so everyone can improve it and send patches.
- Here are the needed optimizations.
WidgetSet
As pas2js is maturing, the next step is to write a widgetset.
