Out of curiosity, was GitHub chosen because it fitted with your workflow?
Several reasons but mostly exposure to other users of libraries that are not tied to MediaWiki and workflow.
Will you embrace Differential when it comes?
That's a discussion we need to have when it is available. In general though yes.
Finally, the ever-changing client-side APIs make gadgets development a pain in the ass.
Agreed but as I said this is going to be painful for a little longer until we have done the UI redesign. After that I want it to be more stable again obviously.
Thanks. Is there a task/page where progress is tracked?
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T54136 and its subtasks are what I use for tracking the whole redesign. We do this in steps. The sitelinks have been revamped but still need a few more fixes. Header area is getting close. Next up is the statement section. And then polishing on the whole thing.
