1239267 - [META] Document Web API interfaces

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Developer Documentation Graveyard :: API: Miscellaneous, defect)

Description

[Jean-Yves Perrier [:teoli]]

we have a plan to have all Web API documented (the interfaces at least, not necessarily every methods and properties).

We have a list of missing interfaces: https://trello.com/c/moarkRdc/237-document-missing-interface-pages-partial

This is an intermediate-level work, so if you are interested in helping ni/ :teoli here so we can assign you some interfaces.

Tasks length start at 2-3 hours (less once you have experience in doing it).

Example of outcome for such a task: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLAnchorElement

As a start I can take over the APIs starting with 'CSS', i.e. CSSAnimation, CSSPrimitiveValue, CSSTransition, CSSValue and CSSValueList.

Sure! Maybe skip CSSAnimation and CSSTransition for the moment (somebody is planned to work on Web animations).

If you can create a doc bug depending of this one, it would be helpful to track who is doing what.

Good to know.

Don't you mean a bug that is *blocking* this one? As I understand, this is the meta-bug for all the tasks.

It looks like your request got overlooked. Duncan, feel free to pick a group of APIs from that list, create a bug report for them blocking this bug and start working on it. (See bug 1239840 for reference.)

I'll also start creating blockers for this bug, so people can start working on the missing parts.
