Anirudh and Hegde's Progress

• Split methods previously part of anna package among parser, engine and helpers packages
• Refactored main.go to only handle flags
• Wrote unit and integration tests for the parser and engine package
• Split the rendering system to make parallelisation easier by switching to a three method system.
  • Render "anna specific" pages such as sitemap and feed
  • Render "user defined" pages which include all markdown files and posts (This method has been parallelised)
  • Render tags and tag-subpages separately, which could be parallelised in the future
• Wrote a benchmark for main.go that times the entire application

Whats Next (Anirudh and Hegde):

• Improve test coverage for the engine package
• Write unit and integration tests for the cmd and helper packages
• Write unit and integration tests for main.go

Nathan’s Progress

• Implemented an interactive web based wizard to help a user bootstrap their anna site
  • The intial build wrote the json blob to disk; now it passes it as a POST request to the webserver itself over port 8080 (may conflict)
  • So far it lets you pick a fill metadata, pick a theme and preview your site
  • It auto validates fields using regex as you proceed
  • Also: an animated progressbar and other easter-eggs (confetti??)

What's next?

• Improve UX by dogfooding and collecting feedback from new users
• Theme triaging and cataloging (basic hugo compatability)
• Bootstrap site dir, if the user didn't already have one, using go-git and add basic git-submodule support for themes
• Implement go best practices: (auto generate docs, tag releases and known bugs)
