Methodology
I follow followed the “Design-Code-Test-Document” methodology.
My first step while developing the any software is to design the process flow by understanding its inner workings. During the initial mentorship, I along with my mentor did some planning of the implementation and set important milestones for same . The as represented in the schedule for the work(given above) for the respective feature. Once I develop each feature, I will write wrote tests for the implementation to make sure whatever I wrote is working correctly. At the end of the tests, I will documentI documented its implementation. I will be using used GIT for version control with reviews taking place on Github( we are yet to finalize the repo's Repo: https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/solang-vscode).
I believe in constantly sharing my progress with the mentor and the community, a weekly update regarding my work is shared with mentor as a weekly meet. The VScode extension uses typescript for client side scripting and the server side implementation will be is in Rust.
The work has been interesting and I happy that me and my mentor have established good communication throughout the mentorship. You can usually find me discussing the project related queries on the solang channel of Hyperledger Rocketchat.
