For the hackathon in Pune, I prepared an 'intro to hacking mediawiki' tutorial for novices. There are a few mistakes in the tutorial, feel free to adjust as needed: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_become_a_MediaWiki_hacker/Extension_Writing_Tutorial
Also, Sumana prepared a 'How to become a Mediawiki Hacker' workshop, outlined here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_become_a_MediaWiki_hacker/Workshop Arthur On Tue, Feb 14, 2012 at 2:44 PM, Ryan Lane <[email protected]> wrote: > I've given a few talks on this at random places.
