Release Assembly - CSFV Wiki Frontend Application Mini-site 5

Project Overview

This project, the CSFV Community Gaming website project will provide the web site infrastructure and integration of the games. This will be a web site that is available on the Internet, and also will be delivered in a form where the server and the games can be installed and used behind a firewall.

We are moving CSFV Wiki as a standlone application, this challenge is part of series of challenges to reskin the wiki for minisites. In this challenge we will reskin wiki for minisite5 website.

Competition Task Overview

The scope of this contest will address the following :

• Implement the views for minisite5 in the provided prototype (prototype attached in forums) :
  • The views should be same to the views from csfv_frontend_module, except they have different look-and-feel
  • Reuse header/footer/menu/chat jade views from csfv_minisite_frontend_module (minisite5 branch)
  • JavaScript files that serve the chat widget, real time notification, search auto complete popup, user info popup ..etc should be referenced from csfv_frontend_module, what that means that the javascript links in the head html tag should explicitly reference the javascript files in the csfv_frontend_module. The csfv_frontend_module link for the JS files should be configured in development.js.
• All CSFV modules should use wiki_frontend branch.
• We have reskinned wiki for minisite1 and minisite3, you can refer to that in the csfv_wiki_module#wiki_frontend branch.
