Dear Indian Wikimedians,

This year, as part of Outreach, Indic MediaWiki Developers User Group[1] has mentored a project in the Google Summer of Code (GSoC) program.[2] The project's goal was to create a guided tour on the topic "Writing userscript and gadget".[3] The project primarily focuses on newbie developers and existing Wikimedia community members who have little bit knowledge about JavaScript. It is a step-by-step guided tour to illustrate writing wiki userscripts and gadgets. It covers basic to advanced topics.

I am very happy to introduce Devyansh Chawla to this community.[4] He was the Wikimedia Intern for this project in GSoC and successfully completed this project. The guided tour is currently located on the test wiki. Please find it at https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Userscript_Tour. If you have any suggestions. Please leave it on its talk page.


Regards,

Jay Prakash
