About the project:

A simple web-based interface for creating dictionaries to provide predictive text and autocorrect facilities on smartphones for less-resourced languages. Its intended users are language activists that may have a spreadsheet of words in their language, but want to have predictive text on their smartphone keyboard. The functionality exists today, but is relegated to a Windows desktop app. This process should be as straightforward as possible. The core technologies are TypeScript and the web platform (e.g., LocalStorage, WebWorkers, IndexedDB). A web framework (if any) has not yet been decided. The data does need to be private (no sharing on a server), so any sensitive data is not transmitted on the network.

Mentors: Eddie Antonio Santos

About CANOSP:

The Canada Open Source Projects (CANOSP) initiative is a Canada-wide program that brings together the top students from different universities to work on open-source projects over the course of a semester.

We host a weekend Code Sprint where the students meet their project mentors, learn about the project that they will be working on, and start developing on a starter task or issue to introduce them to the codebase. This face-to-face working time is critical for building initial rapport amongst teams, solving problems people might be having with toolchains, and explaining complex topics and technologies.

After the Code Sprint, students return to their respective institutions and continue to work on their projects under the supervision of their project mentors.
