User:X-Savitar/IFTTT GSoC Report 2016

Introduction
My name is Alangi Derick Ndimnain (IRC handle: d3r1ck), I joined Wikimedia Foundation on Sep 13 2015. Since then, I have been contributing to the movement and part of my work is available on my mediawiki profile page here: My MediaWiki Page or on Wikidata here: My Wikidata Page. In addition to that, I was selected in the GSoC 2016 program to contribute code to the Wikimedia Foundation (WMF). I was selected on the project: "Integrating IFTTT (IF This Then That) Support for Wikidata" in which you can find the proposal for the project here: Project Proposal. This project is mentored by:


 * Stephen Laporte (Primary Mentor)
 * Beneditk Seidl (Co-Mentor)
 * Marius Hoch (Co-Mentor)
 * Lydia Pintscher (Co-Mentor & Product Manager, Wikidata)
 * Sam Tarling (Co-Mentor)

In addition, I will be executing this project during the Summer and below will be a daily log with respect to my progress in the project starting from Community Bonding to Final Evaluation and Code Submission to Google. You can still follow my progress in the project in my blog: project progress blogspot on my Google Blog Spot in brief.

Community bonding (22nd April - 22nd May)
Week 1


 * Created Project progress report page (this page) as a sub-page of my profile page to keep track of my work during the Summer of Code and a brief log of this report in blog spot here: project progress blogspot
 * Created a phabricator conference to enable a synchronized discussion about the project progress with my mentors and notify them with recent updates on the project's progress and any other updates.
 * Held meetings with mentors individually, having their weekly schedules for code review, guidance etc... This enabled me to get their available times, taking into consideration time zones.
 * Extending Wikipedia IFTTT to support RSS feeds. Worked on the Article revisions and User revision feeds in addition to the Article of the Day, Word of the Day and New article feeds I already worked on. Commit on github is here: Commit and the pull request for the work here: PR3.
