Inclusive Language Slackbot
A bot that watches for triggering language and suggests alternatives in a productive way. Existing bots are too opinionated and lack enough configuration to meet the unique requirements of different organizations' DEIB principles. This project will focus on building a configurable solution that balances accountability with user response (offender feelings). It is research heavy, and offers a range of coding opportunities.
Skill Level: All levels welcome! We will calibrate your deliverables to your interests, capabilities, and desired areas of growth.
Opportunities:
Learn a highly desirable technology (Golang)
Directly impact inclusivity in tech through your research and development
Exposure to solving problems with real world constraints (technical & human)
Working with real stakeholders; deriving requirements and gathering feedback on a solution
How much experience does your group have? Does the project use anything (art, music, starter kits) you didn't create?
