hello everyone,

If any of you have received feedback, could you please share some of the generic comments? It would be really helpful for those of us who submitted after October 16. Thank you

One thing I noticed is that she asked about the idea behind each design decision. Be sure to explain the rationale to the best of your ability, as it can be really helpful to know what you had in mind when we were designing. I hope this helps

hello everyone,

Hi @mwilliams and @cmadeo,

@Mariam
I didn’t get an answer, I also submitted late but out mentor said we might be able to get feedback so let’s stay hopeful, and she will try to drop feedback before our final application

@cmadeo I know you mentioned that submitting a Figma link was okay, but I wanted to double-check whether it’s fine for other contributors here to view the file as well. I noticed that some people have already viewed mine, so I just wanted to confirm that sharing it this way won’t affect others—or me—in any way

A lot of people also viewed mine, i get your worried. But you are worried about the wrong thing. Every designer were given unique feedbacks by our mentor @cmadeo so with that, your design won't be stolen. Hope this makes you at ease.

I’m actually not worried about anyone "stealing" my design. I just wanted to be sure everything's in line with the project guidelines. I probably will not receive feedback cuz I submitted after Oct 16 @Petkov20

Alright sorry for the misunderstanding, hopefully our mentor responds to you.

I hope you're doing well! I wanted to check if it's okay to make the Figma file accessible only to mentors, or if we can submit a different Figma link on the Outreachy website. I'm asking due to copyright concerns during this contribution phase. @cmadeo

@Zee.ixd Pls was this replied

Honestly speaking, just follow the instruction it is understandable that you have copyright concerns, but at the end of the day everyone submission is unique.

Really nice work @Mariam, I found your tutorial / documentation on Medium to be really thorough. I especially liked how you described challenges, like these ones:

Challenge: Another challenge I faced here was Penpot’s interpretation of Figma’s padding specs, which caused three InfoChip components to have inconsistent widths. I couldn’t adjust the widths without affecting spacing, so I prioritized spacing for the tutorial, resulting in a minor 1px width difference. This highlights Penpot’s slight variations in layout handling.

Challenge: Penpot and Figma interpret dimensions differently. For instance, when I input 22px for the line height on Penpot, it didn’t match Figma so a Tip is to: Divide your line height value by the text size (22/14 = 1.57) and use this value in Penpot to ensure the text line height matches what’s in Figma.

Your Penpot file looked good, utilizing Flex Layout and creating Penpot components. Visually, InfoChips appeared very close to the Figma file, just with that 1px discrepancy.

I did prefer your Medium documentation to the video - as I couldn't quite hear you over the music at some points but that is a minor piece of feedback :)

Hi all submitting a link to your .fig file is totally acceptable. I am slowly getting to review tasks from both outreachy projects we are hosting on design, and will contact you when I have had a chance to review. I will kindly ask that you don't reach out to ask about the status of review on your task at this time as responding to messages takes away from the limited time I have for review. Thank you! I appreciate you all for working so hard on these tasks and will get reviews out as soon as I can, while working around other deadlines that are a part of my role.

hi @cmadeo please what do we do if we can't upload the .fig file because of space issue? I submitted my figma link, but I want to confirm if that is ok

Yh, it is. I like that it's very similar to Figma so it's easy to pick up things quickly. The good thing is most design tools are very similar and knowing one makes it easy to pick up others...

Hello everyone,

I’m looking for guidance on how to upload a Penpot file in the "Record Contribution" section on Outreachy. I tried adding links to my documentation and tutorial using Google Docs, but I’m having trouble attaching the Penpot file itself to the Google Doc file too

Has anyone encountered this issue or found a solution for uploading your work on the Outrechy site?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hello @Mariam, I do not think you need to upload the Penpot file while submitting in Outreachy. All you need is, after creating the child ticket as instructed, then you submit the link to your child ticket in Outreachy to record your contribution

Hello everyone,

In the task description, it says we can have our documentation in a doc ...

@Emelikee Ok, thank you

pls can someone answer this question; are supposed to record a tutorial for this microtask too?

Hello @cmadeo , quick question pls, are we supposed to also record a tutorial for this microtask?

ok @Udoka_Marymagdalene_Ineh Thanks

I ended up using Vimeo to host my video tutorial since I ran into issues with YouTube verification. Phew! I didn’t expect to feel like a mini content creator after this microtask! 😂 The biggest challenge was putting together the video tutorial—editing different parts of my process, adding and removing voice-overs—it was definitely a struggle. And just when I was ready to upload, YouTube threw in an extra hurdle with its verification process, which wasn't working and causing frustrations.

Good day everyone, I've been struggling to upload my video tutorial on youtube; is there anything else I can try, I've been trying for hours and I'm getting really frustrated.
Also when we're done with this InfoChip, what next?

@One1cosmo someone already replied me, thanks though...I read the documentation and it was stated that we can replace the "Notice icon" with any other that complements the chip's meaning.

Yh, I tried tweaking but tweaks make a difference even though it's little...what did you do? @Oluebube360

Okay, thanks @Oluebube360 ...do you have any idea for my previous question?

another question I have is that the current codex kit has a "heart" icon for the notice infochip, should we do exactly that in Penpot or replace the heart with an actual notice icon

Hi everyone, Hi @cmadeo

Okay, thanks @Helennells21 I thought of that but i wanted an easier way but anyways thanks

Hello, is there a way to add the libraries without being added into Wikimedia's "Design system" team on Figma . I can't add the codex component library to my file.

Hello @cmadeo I hope you're doing well. I'm Mariam and I'm looking forward to contributing & collaborating
