The goal of the cross-departmental program is to empower the Wikimedia Foundation to accomplish its goals of Knowledge Equity and Knowledge as a Service by evolving and investing in our technology stack to improve its flexibility, maintainability, and sustainability.
Description |
---|
Infrastructure for Wikimedia projects can be more easily scaled due to increased modularization, re-use, maintainability, and testability of the technology stack |
More of the full functionality of MediaWiki can be delivered across all interfaces, devices, and form factors while maintaining usability, accessibility, and internationalization standards |
WMF and volunteer engineers and developers are more effectively onboarded using new and improved documentation that is clear, complete, and cohesive |
Session management system is isolated from the rest of the platform |
It is easier to install, update, deploy, and configure our development, testing, and production environments as well as simple third-party instances of our technology stack |
