Data_and_developer_hub_scratchpad

{T308}
We have [[ https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Data_and_developer_hub | Data and developer hub]] with some content! Declare victory. Now to aggressively improve it.
What's most important to improve? I'm open to trusted actionable feedback so long as people understand that this is //focused// third-party developers to access our data sets and experiment with our APIs.
== My bias is **content**
- T92945: Reflect in dev.wikimedia.org what Wikimedia offers to developers
- add more documentation
- what? depends on {T92941} and {T93048}
# I feel the biggest hole is persona Yanhui (data sets)
# then more for persona Alberto (Wikidata)
- more Wikidata API improvement
=== Resourcing:
- full-time writer, more writer means more gets done
- Q3 goal "Documentation task force including volunteer editors." could help
- Outside chance that some developer will be motivated to showcase their own work
== presentation
- design pass over the Data and developer hub portal
- design pass over the showcase pages
- T301 skin with navigation is a hard requirement if we're going big. (lots of designer and developer time)
UX team's "Blueprint" skin //may// meet our needs
- custom skin will require T369: Decide a namespace in mediawiki.org to host the developer hub
- Could be ambitious and skin generated code at doc.wikimedia.org and rest.wikimedia.org
- smaller design needs
- TXXX icon for "next step"
- TXXX icon for the hub
- TXXX favicon
=== Resourcing
Designer input time, front-end developer, back-end developer
== technical
- T372: How to redirect from dev.wikimedia.org is easy.
- still want T88755, link to [View in sandbox] from API and examples
- T??? cross-site search makes this far more usable
=== Resourcing
?
== General doc improvement
huge list
How pressing is
etc,
Other:
Unordered.
T322: Possibility to pair API documentation with user comments
T312: Technology selection for the Developer Hub
T304: Developer Hub contribution process
T313: Future of the current Developer Hub at mediawiki.org
