How do I get started on creating an extension for misago?

Thanks for showing interest in adding features to Misago!

While 0.6 release is not "behind corner", energy may be better spent by writing OAuth for it instead of 0.5 line that will be deprecated eventually and won't be compatibile with 0.6.

I see on DjangoPackages that pleny of solutions exist that could be integrated into Misago:
www.djangopackages.com/grids/g/oauth/

If you'll wish to add OAuth to Misago 0.6, I will try to find time tomorrow to get done with 0.6's sign-in page tomorrow for you to build upon.

Like I've said, if you want to work on getting social auth to work with Misago 0.6, let me know and I'll prioritize getting users auth in 0.6 done so you can get to it.

I've started work on front-end part of users auth. While I can't give ETA for its completion, I am hoping that in few days I will have registration/activation/password reset/signin features done on future branch and you'll be free to start experimenting with implementation of oauth.

For record, here is checklist for 0.6 auth:

github.com/rafalp/Misago/issues/362

Only parts of Misago auth that are on TODO are finishing users admin, reset-password and UserCP for changing sign-in credentials.

Auth reimplemented: github.com/rafalp/Misago/issues/362

If you wish to start experimenting on adding social auth to Misago, feel free to fork and start lurking around misago.users
