REST API resources

Technology overview: After a technology comparison, we have decided build the new REST API using Spring MVC + Spring HATEOAS, with a primary focus on JSON HAL format.
REST Contract: This work-in-progress contract describes the REST endpoints and generally how the REST API should respond to requests
- https://github.com/DSpace/Rest7Contract
- Mockups of the JSON HAL output are maintained in the dspace-angular project codebase at https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/tree/master/src/backend/data
Source Code:
- https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/tree/master/dspace-spring-rest
Tasks / Tickets (JIRA):
- We've begun creating tasks under the "REST API v7" component in JIRA
  - These tasks are also available via a Kanban board (requires being logged in to JIRA): https://jira.duraspace.org/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=33&projectKey=DS&quickFilter=70

Training Resources

DSpace 7 - Angular UI Development : Getting started with DSpace 7 UI (aka dspace-angular) and how to contribute
DSpace 7 UI Technology Stack : Overview of technologies we are using, and links to third party resources
OR2017 DSpace Angular Workshop : Angular UI Training Workshop resources (slides and hands-on activities) from the OR2017 conference in Brisbane, Australia.
- The beginning of this workshop was also presented as a tutorial at the 2017 North American User Group meeting (at Georgetown University). Video of that tutorial is available at http://youtube.com/watch?v=c4AJ8HeZzcw

DSpace 7 Community Sprints : Starting in May 2018, we are running public development sprints with anyone who wants to contribute. No prior experience with DSpace 7 is necessary, and it's a great opportunity to learn DSpace 7 in a "hands on", collaborative environment (Sprint Coaches are available for questions).
Join one of our weekly meetings (see below). Meetings tend to be hands-on, but we welcome newcomers.
Claiming tickets for either Angular UI or REST API also welcome. See ticketing systems linked above.
Get in touch with the team via Slack. We'd be glad to talk about other ways to contribute
