Now I have taken my first look at the Github I feel rather dejected. I thought I was a reasonable PHP programmer but looking at the code for the vehicle and server I find that I am hopelessly out of my depth from a coding perspective. I know php so the fact it is perl doesn't help. There is a lot of commonality but it is sufficiently different to make it difficult for me right now. It isn't that the code is bad... it isn't bad - it looks great! No, it is just that I think I am so out of practice combined with it being perl I think I am not going to be as much help as I had imagined (hoped)... well, not for quite a while anyway :-( Still, I am sure there are many things that need doing that I can do so I look forward to helping with those. I perhaps just need a bit of guidance on what needs doing that I am actually able to do! I think a crash (or not so crash!) course on perl is my starting point. My php and general programming background will mean I pick up the basics pretty quickly but it is the finer points that will take a while I reckon. I'll start on that this week and then at least I might be able to understand what has already been coded and maybe tackle bugs etc even if I find it difficult to code from scratch. In the meantime, I am also getting to grips with Github... it is also not as easy as I had imagined and I am a little scared that I might do something that corrupts the origin repo! Heeeelp! I am using command line Git and Windows Github at the moment but I am about to install Eclipse so I shall hopefully use that for Git instead as it is all nicely integrated. Does anyone else use Eclipse? I also have Visual Studio 2013 for Windows development. I am wondering if I might be able to create a version of the phone app for Windows phones... would that be useful? I am not a Windows developer but creating Windows phone apps is something I would like to get to grips with so again, it wouldn't be quick but I might be able to come up with something useful. Something else I could probably do is a web interface (or develop the existing one if it already exists) to bring the phone app functionality to the web? Any use? I am very comfortable with databases and mySQL so if there is any database stuff that needs doing I would be keen to be involved. There is so much for me to do to get me up and running it is almost overwhelming! I must just take it a stage at a time. Any guidance/advice on where you think I would be wise to start would be very much appreciated. Any suggestions? Paul PS I am not trying to "muscle in" on any aspects of OVMS... I am just in "brain-dump" mode for now until I find my place in the team... where ever that happens to be! I am cool with doing anything I am able to do... or nothing, if that is preferred :-)
