Project Vision

Continue to use TCorg to experiment and learn. I want to track quality metrics automatically. Yes these are indirect quality metrics, but I'd like to see what I can track on the build side and how it works. Then improve upon them later.

Phase 1: Versioning & Traceability (High Priority)

Goal: Establish a "Source of Truth" for site deployments.

  • Implement VERSION file: Create a plaintext file in the root directory to track SemVer (e.g., 1.0.0).
  • Footer Integration: Update the website footer to dynamically display the current string from the VERSION file.
  • Automated Increments: Create a workflow to increment the VERSION file on every deployment.
  • Deployment Tagging: Ensure every production deploy is tagged in Git to match the internal version.

Phase 1.5: Agent Readiness

  • Agent Readiness: Ensure that any AI agents (e.g., GitHub Copilot) can start working on the repo with relevant context and guidelines. This will be important for future phases where we want to automate more of the contribution process.
  • See AI Agent Readiness Assessment for details on current state and next steps.

Phase 2: Quality Ledger & Metrics

Goal: Associate every site version with a specific quality snapshot.

  • Lighthouse Tracking: Automate Lighthouse audits during CI and record Performance, Accessibility, and SEO scores per version.
  • Link Integrity: Implement a broken link checker (e.g., linkinator) to log broken link counts against the current version.
  • Build Analytics: Track and log build times to monitor the impact of site growth on CI/CD performance.
  • Bug Attribution: Update Issue Templates to include a "Site Version" field to track bug counts relative to specific releases.

Phase 3: Developer Experience (DX) & AI Workflows

Goal: Streamline contributions using automation and AI context.

  • Automatic Linting: Set up Prettier and ESLint with pre-commit hooks (Husky) to ensure code consistency.
  • AI Contextualization: Create a .github/copilot-instructions.md to help GitHub Copilot understand the conference data schema and project goals.
  • Prompt Imports: Build a library of standardized prompts to assist contributors in formatting and validating new conference submissions.

Phase 4: Public Quality Dashboard

Goal: Surface project health and transparency to the community.

  • Metrics Dashboard: Build a public-facing page (e.g., /stats or /quality) to visualize project health.
  • Trend Visualization: Display historical graphs of Lighthouse scores, bug counts, and conference growth over different versions.
  • Live Status Badges: Integrate dynamic README badges for current version, build status, and site health.

Misc:

*Goal: Other important features

  • Calendar Download: Make it possible to just download the current TC.org data as a ICO and import it into your calendar
  • Reference License in Footer: Should we reference our MIT-LICENSE file in super footer?
  • Create automated tests.
