I read both about the LibreFoodPantry main page and the items from Thea’s Pantry.

I chose one exciting for LibreFoodPantry and expect to find information on the organization’s mission, values, and code of conduct, as well as how to get involved and make donations. One exciting aspect of the organization may be its use and promotion of Free and Open-Source Software (FOSS) and the values of freedom, community, and transparency. I write about it, there are many exciting pieces, but I chose one of them because it has the organization’s commitment to open collaboration and its belief in the power of community-driven development.

I decided on one vital part from Thea’s Pantry; one might expect to find a web application that allows clients to order food and other necessities and for staff to manage those orders. One exciting aspect of Thea’s Pantry might be its Agile software development methodology. The agile methodology emphasizes collaboration, flexibility, and rapid iteration, allowing for efficient and effective development and management of the application to run correctly. Also, I write about it as an exciting piece because of the organization’s commitment to staying current with industry best practices and delivering a high-quality product to its clients.

Before working on anything for LibreFoodPantry, I needed to read up on the project. LibreFoodPantry values FOSSisms: https://opensource.com/education/14/6/16-foss-principles-for-educators. I thought this was an interesting read, especially because I am new to open source culture. It discusses some values and beliefs, one of them being that if something didn’t happen publicly, then it didn’t happen. This would make it easier for people to be able to see what’s being done and join, and documenting things helps keep people up-to-date on such a large project. Some FOSSisms also mention that students’ changes aren’t likely to completely mess up a project because of versioning and branches exist. This is reassuring that something I do for the project, even something small, is still helpful, and changes I make would not be entirely damaging.

I read up on Theas Pantry at https://gitlab.com/LibreFoodPantry/client-solutions/theas-pantry/documentation/-/blob/main/README.md. An interesting component of information from those files is the User Stories. I wanted to highlight this because it is helpful in helping us understand the flow of how signing in would work for different people, and any restrictions there may be. This gives us a better idea of the coding. For example, we know to code for a blank registration form appearing if the visiting guest’s WSU ID has not been swiped at the pantry before. We would also know to code for the guest’s current information to be displayed if they’ve visited before. On the topic of restrictions, the user story tells us that only one guest is allowed in the pantry at a time, so we know to maybe only code for up to one person to be signed in at a time, and they’d need to sign/check out before another guest could.
