In this week\'s installment of Programming By Stealth, Bart officially kicks off the XKPasswdJS project. This is what we\'ve all been waiting for! As I said to Bart at the end of our recording, we\'re no longer fixing to make a plan, we _have_ a plan. The shownotes for this episode point to the README file for the GitHub project.

Bart explains n the podcast that we\'ll have a project skeleton phase where Bart will define the code that has to be ported from Perl to JavaScript, and he\'ll build the guidelines that will help us work as a team of contributors. This means things like a style guide, automated scripts to build the project, and configuration files for the tooling.

He has a vision that we\'ll work on the direct port next, with no enhancements and I tried to get him to take a dollar bet on whether that goal will be achieved, but he didn\'t fall for it. After that, we\'ll go into maintenance mode.

It\'s a fun episode because we\'re finally moving forward after learning all of the tools we\'ll need to make the project a success!

You can find Bart\'s shownotes that point to the README at pbs.bartificer.net.

I\'m having a bit of trouble with the transcripts but by the time you read this, you _might_ be able to read an unedited, auto-generated transcript: CCATP_2022_12_10
