CSSWG Tools

The CSSWG uses some tools to make our jobs easier. Here they are!

• This DokuWiki (obviously)
• W3C Mailing Lists: specifically www-style for our specs, public-css-testsuite for testing, and public-fx for specs we co-edit with the SVGWG. We also have an internal list for administrivia.
• Git/GitHub or Mercurial can be used to access the version control system for our specs and our tests.
• Editor's Drafts are automatically generated and available with publishing history.
• WordPress runs our official blog
• GitHub issues are used to track spec issues. (Older spec issues are found in the mail archives, and might be additionally tracked in CSS Tracker, FXTF Tracker, Bugzilla, and this wiki.)
• Shepherd is used to track test suite bugs.
• Test Harness is used for running test suites and generating implementation reports.
• The CSS module template, the Bikeshed spec preprocessor, and the bibliographic data file are used to generate our specs. A more comprehensive set of bibliographic data can be found at SpecRef, which is automatically loaded into Bikeshed. See CSSWG and other post processing for tips. (Note: Some specs still use Bert's post-processor and the older module template.)
• Zakim is a conference bridge with an IRC bot that helps us manage our telecons.
• IRC is the real-time chat system we use for backchannel communication during meetings.
• IRC Logs are available for our IRC channels
• iCal Feed contains our meeting times.
• Interop Browser Data Provides crawler data from Chrome/Microsoft Edge about CSS properties, values and top sites utilized
• Disposition of Comments tool Provides a GUI for easy editing and exploring DoCs.

Tools setup for trying out, or otherwise playing with. Could change / break at any time.
