Hello, Thanks for you kind reply. I want to know some of the details about the idea. Do we have to implement new javascript features into the codebase or we have to shift the existing codebase on yarn package manager with package dependencies with modern javascript like ES6 by using babel compiler as the existing code is written in vanilla js.
Thanks,
Regards, Piyush Vijay

Hi, I am Piyush Vijay, pre-final year student of IIT Roorkee. I am a GSoC aspirant. I was going through the idea list of phpmyadmin and I found the idea of introducing Javascript with modern feature like ES6 and package manager very interesting. I would like to contribute for this. Looking

your reply.
Sure.
We don't generally recommend starting to code on the actual idea before the coding period starts. But you are open to research around the topic, gaining insights from other projects, getting to know the tools you might want to use to implement this idea, getting a measure of work that might be required on the existing codebase to support this etc. This will surely help you in coming up with your proposal.
For getting familiarized with the codebase and getting your contributions in, you might wish to take a look at the issue tracker and pick an issue that no one is currently working on (do add a comment on it saying you are working on it, so that there is less duplication of efforts). This will help you to understand the codebase and give you a taste of working with it.
Please let me know if you have any specific queries about the idea and I will try to answer them as much as I can.
Thanks.
