1 pointsby lordpankakealmost 6 years ago
Hi everyone! We need young people looking to work with an actual production codebase to help create experiences for article authors and editors.<p>The Journal<p>The Young Scientists Journal is a non-profit peer-reviewed science journal for under 21&#x27;s. Completely staffed by young people (~200 editors, ~10 artists, ~2 devs).<p>Me<p>I joined the Young Scientists Journal when I was 15. I was the one of the first developers there, and I helped them move from their legacy Annotum stack to a semi-decent Wordpress setup. I also, more recently, wrote an Article Management System to handle all these incoming articles. I&#x27;ll be turning 21 soon enough, so it&#x27;s time to start looking for people who can take over the reins for the software I&#x27;ve been developing.<p>Role<p>Maintain the Article Management System<p>Help write front ends for submitting and managing articles<p>Help maintain the Wordpress website (Optional)<p>What we need from you<p>Be a young person<p>Have at least one project written in JavaScript<p>Be willing to learn TypeScript<p>Be willing to learn how to deploy TypeScript apps<p>Don&#x27;t worry if any of that sounds intimidating. When I started, I hadn&#x27;t seriously used a programming language before. The difference is, when you join, I&#x27;ll be there to get you accustomed to working with this kind of codebase.<p>If you have any questions about the position, want to help with something different or even want to submit an article, leave a comment or send me a message.<p>Thanks to everyone for reading this!<p>from the YSJ!
