Help on website project

1

Hi everyone :slight_smile:

I’m learning how to code since some time now, and I am really impressed by the community and all help it can bring. To be honest, this post is like a last resort to a issue I have. I really don’t know if some of you will want or be able to help me.

I am volunteer in a Macedonian NGO and I am currently working on a documentary project, a series of portraits of Macedonian citizens. We would like to broadcast it on a website developed for the project. I found partnership with two young learner programmers. As I said, I am learning myself and I am still a beginner, I don’t know much about complex website.

Finally two persons worked on it, one on the front-end and one on the back-end. Unfortunately one of the two left without giving news, and the other one had to connect both front-end and back-end, but he didn’t succeed.
Since, we worked together on a wordpress website instead (for the same purpose) but it isn’t conclusive. I have also think of starting again the website from the beginning with my knowledge but it seems like a big mountain to climb.

Maybe some of you would accept and be able to help us on connecting both parts? Just to take a look maybe?
Here is the Github link of what we have: https://github.com/OricleError/portraits_of_macedonia

You will see it’s been five months since no one change anything, but the one who tried to connect front-end and back-end worked on other files, and as I said we have been working on other non conclusive solutions since :confused:

I sincerely thank you and hope to not bother :slight_smile:

Is there any project documentation - what are the goals - what are the major features - what are the user stories?

we can continue the discussion by PM if you prefer

I would be interested in working on the frontend of this project if anyone wants to make like a slack group or similar to discuss?

Hi! :slight_smile: and thank you!
Yes I have all documentation about it, but I’m not sure it’s in the right “form”.
Indeed would it be possible to create a working group together to exchange about it?
I forked the repository https://github.com/SFromentarius/portraits_of_macedonia
@ppc and @Mortuie do you know how can I explain more about project documentation in kind of group discussion?

I think all help is good to take of course :slight_smile:
But I am sorry, english is not my native language and I am not sure I understand right your last sentence

Thank you!
Is there any drive or any folder of this king where I can put some documentation for you to learn about the project? Or that I can create if it’s ok for you? (by google drive)
@Mortuie and @paulstandley would you like to join on one of these meetings?

Ideally a top-level docs directory in the github repo is great - google drive is fine otherwise
