Title : Offline Support for WikiToLearn WikiEditor
A Brief Description: OfflineExtension is an extension for WikiToLearn that will add offline support to the current WikiEditor. This extension notifies the user, his/her's internet connectivity status and if submitted while offline, will parse Wikitext to HTML and then renders it.
Work Report
During Summer the following tasks were completed :
- A MediaWiki Extension that :
- Shows the exact status of internet connectivity of the user and alerts the same.
- Parses WikiText to HTML offline using Regular Expressions.

The OfflineExtension is nearly complete at the moment, but still needs tweaking before it comes to production mode. Some of them are :
- Since, all the wikitext tags are currently not supported, I have to look for ways to parse those tags without making the parser heavy.
- Making the user interface better by
- Asking user, whether he needs offline editing or not.

This is awesome about GSoC: Everything about GSoC is awesome. The best thing that I found about GSoC is be able to work on something that will actually be in production, which I think is a rare opportunity. In addition, interacting with mentors and developers from across the world and learning new things every day is priceless.
This is what I learned during GSoC:
- Working with large codebase
- Regular Expressions
- Advanced JavaScript and Jquery
- MediaWiki Extension Development
- Working with Docker
- Working with MediaWiki WikiEditor
- GIT
