I’m a graduating student from the Master’s program in Computer Engineering at Queen’s University. I will be starting my PhD in September, 2019. I started contributing code to coala several years ago and have made contributions such as bug fixes, writing tests and feature implementation. I have also served as a google code-in mentor for coala. My most recent contribution includes participating in the Google Summer of Code with coala under the project of Cohesive Editor Support.

coala spyder is now a functional coala plugin and can be launched from the spyder editor. The repository has unittests and continuous integration set up with TravisCI. It can also be tested as a stand-alone widget.
coala sublime is now a functional plugin for Sublime Text 3 with all of the bells and whistles of SublimeLinter.
coala vim is now a functional plugin for vim and neovim powered by the functionality of syntastic.
The three above projects have been added to the main coala repository.
The main challenge was time management and allocation of sufficient time towards the Cohesive Editor Support project as I was also working on a university project at the time. The quick replies of my mentor, John and setting me on the right path helped me get more out of myself than I would’ve been able to without him.
Another challenge was diving into undocumented territory when working with integrating the spyder-coala widget with the spyder IDE.
For the first plugin - coala spyder, there are two main bugs that need to be fixed:
1) Obtaining the current file for run_coala
2) Widget crashing when unpacking from button
Also, unittests currently do not have full coverage.
For the second plugin - coala sublime, there is one main bug that needs to be fixed:
Also, unittests and CI has not been set up for this repository.
For the third plugin - coala vim, unittests and CI needs to be set up.
For AtomRequirement in the dependency_management repo, all functions are not yet added to check for apm installed packages.
