Owlkins just hit v1.0 and we don't have a definitive set of rules or guidelines for helping out.

If you find something that needs to be fixed or given attention, feel free to raise an Issue on our repo. If you have a fix or feature submit a PR and we will take a look.

In general, areas that need improvement are:

  • Testing
    • unit tests for the backend
    • front-end tests using a tool like perhaps Selenium
  • Improvements to the install process:
    • Installation script
    • Automated Cloud configuration with a tool like Terraform
  • Architecture changes:
    • Offload ffmpeg processing of videos to workers on other machines, be it other virtual machines or in the cloud such as AWS Lambda
  • Other suggestions! This list can and will grow as more people get involved with Owlkins.
