I think the core was just contributing even documentations helps a lot for open source projects.
For me, I contributed last year on the python guides in freecodecamp.
It really breaks my notion of open source that you need to be super badass in coding to contribute to an open-source project.
The dev.to documentation is so much better than when we first went open source and a huge part of that is the community.
That's great I shall take a look at the dev.to documentation and codebase to see where I could help during the hacktoberfest then.
I started contributing last year. Needed to use a java library on Java 7, and the author was very welcoming even helped me since I didn't know much about non blocking code. Now that I think about it, ever since I've contributed tons to multiple repos. π
README updates are way more valuable than I think people give them credit for. Adding a simple line of documentation or even an event date such as this can save many people a lot of Googling, confusion, and frustration.
Absolutely. A lot of READMEs are missing the helpful snippets around installation that can really fill in gaps for folks that are not super familiar with the environment.
I remember when I was just starting out with Ruby and I didn't quite understand how installing gems worked, it really helped when README was super explicit, even if the step by step could be inferred by anyone with more experience.
Newbies are sometimes best capable of identifying these hiccups.
Great work!
I'm one of the maintainers of the React Documentation in German.
I learned a lot by having a look at the workflows, the automated stuff etc.
Gosh @ben thanks for being transparent and open. This helps set new belief in how devs think about OSS contribution.
Then I'm a TypeScript contributor β
