Learning how nanodlp internally work

Hi, every body,

Since nanodlp is an open source project, I asked my self why I'm just using it and I can't contribute or even make at least my own small changes!

also since all I know is python and a little bit of bash scripting, but nanodlp is based on javascript and node.js (if I understand correctly)

So I started learning javascript and node.js from w3schools

But It seems to me that after I finished an acceptable amount (in my opinion at least), I still understand nothing, and can't trace where the beginning and how things are work together

So my question is if anyone can tell me what topics I need to study, and how I can link them together I will be completely grateful.
Note: my knowledge of web is very basic only

And thanks in advance.

Re: Learning how nanodlp internally work

it's just the UI and it's not updated. Nanodlp is unhappily not opensource.

Thank you juliendelnatte for the response

actually, my question is still exist even if nanodlp isn't an opensource,

I need to learn the technologies that nanodlp based on

I know it seems a silly question but I'm totally new to javascript and node.js

also, I see that the touch screen master is based on node.js but I can't follow it.

Can you suggest topics that I need to study after the basics of javascript so I can understand what theas scripts are doing?

and thanks in advance

Re: Learning how nanodlp internally work

Hello, don't know if nanodlp is based on node.js. I think not. I think it's based on python or so.
you can so learn javascript on the web, and node.js too. Python is also verry simple to learn on internet.

What about the touchscreen?
https://github.com/Tibus/TouchScreen-For-NanoDLP

I think it's based on node.js, right?

are there any specific topics I need to learn after basis to follow up with the source code?

Re: Learning how nanodlp internally work

Yes, the touchscreen module I made (I'm Tibus ;D) is done in node.js because I didn't have access to nanodlp source-code to put it in and I really like nodejs...
The code of Touchscreen is classic javascript/nodejs. Lean so Javascript, NodeJS, Gulp (why not) and ES2015 (javascript new standard) and you will be able to modify the TouchScreen code easily.

Re: Learning how nanodlp internally work

NanoDLP is free to use but not an opensource software.
It is based on golang and very little C. You can contribute to UI part if you want.

Re: Learning how nanodlp internally work

In perspective, Nanodlp have some kindly tools which "open" some degrees of freedom(i2C,serial,formulas), i hope someday nano becomes a great product.
