Project Description

Tafl is a family of ancient norther European board games, including Hnefatafl, Tablut and Brandubh. This Hackweek project aims to take a half-finished implementation to a small open-source game project with a terminal user interface. This is a personal learning project aimed to self-teach Rust, however contributions are very welcome.

Goal for this Hackweek

  • Complete implementation of Hnefatafl and Tablut rules
  • Complete an intuitive terminal user interface including an in-game manual explaining the rules
  • Functioning Open-Source project with the ability to produce release artifacts, accept code-contributions and bug reports

Stretch Goals:

  • Add primitive multi-player mode or computer opponent
  • RPM package

    Build a terminal user-interface (TUI) for Agama by IGonzalezSosa

    Description

    Officially, Agama offers two different user interfaces. On the one hand, we have the web-based interface, which is the one you see when you run the installation media. On the other hand, we have a command-line interface. In both cases, you can use them using a remote system, either using a browser or the agama CLI.

    We would expect most of the cases to be covered by this approach. However, if you cannot use the web-based interface and, for some reason, you cannot access the system through the network, your only option is to use the CLI. This interface offers a mechanism to modify Agama's configuration using an editor (vim, by default), but perhaps you might want to have a more user-friendly way.

    Goals

    The main goal of this project is to built a minimal terminal user-interface for Agama. This interface will allow the user to install the system providing just a few settings (selecting a product, a storage device and a user password). Then it should report the installation progress.

    • https://ratatui.rs/

    Conclusions

    We have summarized our conclusions in a pull request. It includes screenshots ;-) We did not implement all the features we wanted, but we learn a lot during the process. We know that, if needed, we could write a TUI for Agama and we have an idea about how to build it. Good enough.

    Arcticwolf - A rust based user space NFS server by vcheng

    Description

    Rust has similar performance to C. Also, have a better async IO module and high integration with io_uring. This project aims to develop a user-space NFS server based on Rust.

    Goals

    • Get an understanding of how cargo works
    • Get an understanding of how XDR was generated with xdrgen
    • Create the RUST-based NFS server that supports basic operations like mount/readdir/read/write

    OpenPlatform Self-Service Portal by tmuntan1

    Description

    In SUSE IT, we developed an internal developer platform for our engineers using SUSE technologies such as RKE2, SUSE Virtualization, and Rancher. While it works well for our existing users, the onboarding process could be better.

    To improve our customer experience, I would like to build a self-service portal to make it easy for people to accomplish common actions. To get started, I would have the portal create Jira SD tickets for our customers to have better information in our tickets, but eventually I want to add automation to reduce our workload.

    Goals

    • Build a frontend website (Angular) that helps customers create Jira SD tickets.
    • Build a backend (Rust with Axum) for the backend, which would do all the hard work for the frontend.

    AI-Powered Unit Test Automation for Agama by joseivanlopez

    The Agama project is a multi-language Linux installer that leverages the distinct strengths of several key technologies:

    • Rust: Used for the back-end services and the core HTTP API, providing performance and safety.
    • TypeScript (React/PatternFly): Powers the modern web user interface (UI), ensuring a consistent and responsive user experience.
    • Ruby: Integrates existing, robust YaST libraries (e.g., yast-storage-ng) to reuse established functionality.

    The Problem: Testing Overhead

    Developing and maintaining code across these three languages requires a significant, tedious effort in writing, reviewing, and updating unit tests for each component. This high cost of testing is a drain on developer resources and can slow down the project's evolution.

    The Solution: AI-Driven Automation

    This project aims to eliminate the manual overhead of unit testing by exploring and integrating AI-driven code generation tools. We will investigate how AI can:

    1. Automatically generate new unit tests as code is developed.
    2. Intelligently correct and update existing unit tests when the application code changes.

    By automating this crucial but monotonous task, we can free developers to focus on feature implementation and significantly improve the speed and maintainability of the Agama codebase.

    Goals

    • Proof of Concept: Successfully integrate and demonstrate an authorized AI tool (e.g., gemini-cli) to automatically generate unit tests.
    • Workflow Integration: Define and document a new unit test automation workflow that seamlessly integrates the selected AI tool into the existing Agama development pipeline.
    • Knowledge Sharing: Establish a set of best practices for using AI in code generation, sharing the learned expertise with the broader team.

    Contribution & Resources

    We are seeking contributors interested in AI-powered development and improving developer efficiency. Whether you have previous experience with code generation tools or are eager to learn, your participation is highly valuable.

    If you want to dive deep into AI for software quality, please reach out and join the effort!

    • Authorized AI Tools: Tools supported by SUSE (e.g., gemini-cli)
    • Focus Areas: Rust, TypeScript, and Ruby components within the Agama project.
