Mozilla's Web Compatibility team builds and maintains a web application called webcompat.com that allows individuals to easily report site compatibility issues - and to allow us to better understand the larger picture of compatibility issues affecting Firefox users on the web.
In this Outreachy project, the participant will contribute to one or more of the following projects to help us succeed from a few different angles.
* Design and implement a system that allows site owners and developers to register for notifications (i.e., RSS, E-mail) for issues related to a given domain
* Design and build a user interface that allows bug reporters to identify possible duplicate problems
* Use cutting edge features like Service Workers to enable offline and sync capabilities between the client and server
* Migrate webcompat.com front-end to use ES6 modules (likely powered by something like Babel)
