===Synopsis
The project involves removing the use of jQuery UI from Page Forms since it is gradually losing its popularity among developers since 2016.
In this project, I will be replacing the jQuery UI for OOUI in the page forms which are used by users to add, edit and query data using forms.
**Possible Mentor(s):** @Yaron Koren, @TBDHave you contacted your mentors already?: Not yet.
=4th May – 1st June
· Community bonding period
I'll familiarize myself with the general workflow of how the page forms works and how it auto completes with Jquery. I'll also familiarize myself with the codebase of the MediaWiki extension that allows users to add, edit and query data using forms and how various components of it work together.
=Week 1(1st June – 7th June)
I'll take a look at the architecture of some OOUI based widgets currently deployed on Wikimedia and see how to deploy it for page forms. Study and write basic documentation on using OOUI.
=Week 2(8th June – 14th June)
Discuss and iron out any questions I may have regarding the implementation of the OOUI widget with my mentor and start with the helper functions and modules required to interact with the PHP backend.
=Week 3(15th June – 21st June)
Start working on the implementation of the interface with guidance from my mentors.
=Week 4(21st June - 28th June)
Work on the implementation and start removing the jquery ui from page forms.

===About Me
I am an undergraduate student, pursuing a degree in Bachelor of Technology in Computer Science from Ondo State University of Science and Technology, Ondo state, Nigeria. I am in the 5th semester of my ten-semester program. I will graduate in May 2022. I am a member of Open Source Africa having attended the just concluded festival in Lagos, Nigeria . As a member, I have attended and taken up the organization of various workshops on Git, Open Source, How to contribute to github, etc. .Steve Jobs said, "Everybody should learn how to program a computer because it teaches you how to think" and I feel open source software and communities make it easy for people to join and be a part of software development. The concept of Outreach programs like Summer of Code motivates and helps so many people. The best part is that all the communities welcome new contributors.
===Past Experience
I have experience in working with HTML, CSS, PHP, JAVASCRIPT among others. Among databases I mostly worked on mysql. Among OS I mostly work in Windows.
I have built so dynamic websites of which bit.ly/ebookonlineweb is part of though folded up.
I have participated in building a past question application for my school. Involved in building community contribution sites and lots more.
===Microtasks carried out
I contributed to the WikimediaUI-Style-Guide by adding the __blank and noopener property on so many pages
