The STEP project needs lots of volunteers with many varied skills.
English language speakers
We need lots of English-speaking people, writers, editors, etc. in order to develop our dataset further. Some tasks include:
- Updating our Topical/Subject search data from archaic language to remove words such as "oblation"
- Updating our ESV Interlinear - we have around 100 chapters left which need someone who can compare the KJV text with the ESV text (ask for details).
- Write and edit articles for the forthcoming encyclopedia
Native language speakers
We want to provide STEP in many different languagues. In order to achieve this, we require people who are willing to translate buttons, menus, help messages. The task involves translating roughly 400 short phrases (2-3 words each). We use Crowdin to manage our translations. Join the project by clicking here.
Programmers
The STEP project would like to have more code contributors. The project is a combination Java and Javascript with roughly 50/50 split and a bit of HTML/CSS.
Lots of other opportunities
There are many other areas where we need volunteers.
- Working out the coordinates of Tyndale's Ancient maps to overlay these on Google Maps.
- Graphics designer to help improve the User Interface colours
- UX expert to feedback on usability and make recommendations for better user experience
