Summary

Outreachy program provides us two intern for 2022, thanks to the Perlfoundation

The project title : "Improve the code quality of the Perl code of the Open Food Facts backend and website".

Description

Status: planning

People: Raquel DiPietro, Yukti Sharma and mentors: Alex-off and Stephane

Impact (why)

Improving Perl code quality and documentation is a great way to help the project move forward at a faster pace in the future.

Having less bugs also greatly improves the user and contributors experience.

Having a cleaner code, may also help having more contributions to the perl code base.

Expected outcomes (what)

Improve code quality by:

  • adding unit tests to functions that lack them
  • adding integration tests
  • investigating the cause of warnings (e.g. unitialized variables) and fixing them
  • possibly refactoring some parts of the code to make it more simple and readable
