[v3] Add tags
ErikSchierboom opened this issue · 5 comments
This issue is part of the migration to v3. You can read full details about the various changes here.
In Exercism v3, tracks can be annotated with tags. This allows searching for tracks with a certain tag combination, making it easy for students to find an interesting track to join.
Tags are specified in the top-level "tags"
field in the track's config.json
file and are defined as an array of strings, as specified in the spec.
Goal
The "tags"
field in the config.json
file should be updated to contain the tags that are relevant to this track. The list of tags that can be used is listed in the spec.
Example
{
"tags": [
"runtime/jvm",
"platform/windows",
"platform/linux",
"paradigm/declarative",
"paradigm/functional",
"paradigm/object_oriented"
]
}
Tracking
I would propose the following tags:
{
"tags": [
"runtime/jvm",
"platform/windows",
"platform/linux",
"platform/mac",
"platform/web",
"paradigm/imperative",
"paradigm/functional",
"paradigm/object_oriented",
"typing/static",
"typing/strong",
"execution_mode/compiled",
"used_for/backends",
"used_for/frontends",
"used_for/financial_systems"
]
}
Some points about the above:
- I added
platform/web
because Scala can be transpiled to javascript with Scala.js - There are some other uses, but are very specific, I think someone else should complete this
Scala can also be used to do object-oriented programming, right?

Of course! Sorry, I don't know how I missed it.
No worries
