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

    Looking at Rust if it could be an interesting programming language by jsmeix

    Get some basic understanding of Rust security related features from a general point of view.

    This Hack Week project is not to learn Rust to become a Rust programmer. This might happen later but it is not the goal of this Hack Week project.

    The goal of this Hack Week project is to evaluate if Rust could be an interesting programming language.

    An interesting programming language must make it easier to write code that is correct and stays correct when over time others maintain and enhance it than the opposite.

    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.

    Mail client with mailing list workflow support in Rust by acervesato

    Description

    To create a mail user interface using Rust programming language, supporting mailing list patches workflow. I know, aerc is already there, but I would like to create something simpler, without integrated protocols. Just a plain user interface that is using some crates to read and create emails which are fetched and sent via external tools.

    I already know Rust, but not the async support, which is needed in this case in order to handle events inside the mail folder and to send notifications.

    Goals

    • simple user interface in the style of aerc, with some vim keybindings for motions and search
    • automatic run of external tools (like mbsync) for checking emails
    • automatic run commands for notifications
    • apply patch set from ML
    • tree-sitter support with styles

    Exploring Rust's potential: from basics to security by sferracci

    Description

    This project aims to conduct a focused investigation and practical application of the Rust programming language, with a specific emphasis on its security model. A key component will be identifying and understanding the most common vulnerabilities that can be found in Rust code.

    Goals

    Achieve a beginner/intermediate level of proficiency in writing Rust code. This will be measured by trying to solve LeetCode problems focusing on common data structures and algorithms. Study Rust vulnerabilities and learning best practices to avoid them.

    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.
