I launched a VueJS web app with Firestore a while back to create a personal techradar. It can also be configured to work as a classic team/organizational TechRadar. Several people really loved the idea of having something to track tech, skills and especially experiences. Compared to other TechRadar solutions out there you can add historical entries describing how/why you move a specific item to another skill level.

See a bunch of demo gifs on the repo itself: github.com/anoff/techradar#demo

There are a few issues that might be a good start to help out; or open up a discussion if you have another idea for a contribution. Any type of collaboration welcome 🤗

Interested in python, django, or twilio? I'm the maintainer of django-twilio; it's a pluggable django app to help integrate with twilio.

Hi 👋 I created a "TweetDeck for GitHub" called DevHub and would love to get more contributions! It currently has ~4200 stars and almost 10k signed up users.

It's 100% written using TypeScript, React Hooks and react-native-web. It shares code between Web, Mobile and Desktop.

Link: github.com/devhubapp/devhub

This is a fun little project I’ve been working on recently: github.com/JonathanWThom/opener

I like to start and end the day with a clean slate on my desktop, and found myself opening and closing the same set of apps everyday. To speed this up, I wrote a command line utility in Go that will open and close all the apps in a configuration file with a single command. It's configurable from a JSON file or an interactive session, and also supports different groups - like if you have a group of apps you want to open/close quickly on weekends.

It's a silly little thing, but I think it could be useful to others. I would love to have some well meaning contributors for the project who are interested in Go and/or CLI utilities.

I've been actively working on a static site generator in C. If you look at the TODO file in the repo, it should give you an idea of features I would like to add. If anyone would like to contribute to this it would be greatly appreciated!

I am actively developing wemake-python-styleguide. Or it is also known as "the strictest python linter ever". And I am looking for new contributors.

Linter? It sound like a complex task!

No, it is not. Everything complex is hidden away from you. We just need to write business logic. It is simple. Look at the entry level tasks: github.com/wemake-services/wemake-...

How do I start?

We have a friendly tutorial for newcomers, check it out: wemake-python-styleguide.readthedo...

What to do if I get lost?

Just ask me any questions and I will help you.

Welcome to the strictest and most opinionated python linter ever.

wemake-python-styleguide is actually a flake8 plugin with some other plugins as dependencies.

The Zen of Python, by Tim Peters
Beautiful is better than ugly
Explicit is better than implicit
Simple is better than complex.
Complex is better than complicated.
Flat is better than nested.
Sparse is better than dense.
Readability counts.
Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules.
Although practicality beats purity.
Errors should never pass silently.
Unless explicitly silenced.
In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess.
There should be one-- and preferably only one-- obvious way to do it.
Although that way may not be obvious at first unless you're Dutch.
Now is better than never.
Although never is often better than *right* now.
If the implementation is hard to explain, it's a bad idea.
If the implementation is easy to explain, it

I know the market is small around here, but if anyone needs help with their .Net/.Net Core/C#/Azure project, let me know. I'm also decent with setting up CI/CD stuff in CircleCI and Azure DevOps.

I'm still learning a lot of this JS stuff, not enough to feel comfortable contributing to someone's project.

I'll catch up though.
