Hello,

I have started a guide, if this can be considered a contribution, i think it is to help the majority of the people who want to learn development and are like faded away when they cannot even get passed the basics. If i take me for example, i have had tough wreckage's on my journey, where one really feels a need to quit, and i wished, someone would have helped me the way, i am now writing this guide. So maybe what you wish for yourself in the past, should you do for others in your present.

You could give Flarum a try? I've been working as a 3rd party extension developer for a little over 2 years now :)

Amazing community, well-rounded developers, and a ton of fun to have with a modern approach to forums!

Website: flarum.org/
GitHub: Composer Project/Core App(pulled in by composer project)

Quick Specs

Front-end: MithrilJS (considering a switch to a different JS framework)
Back-end: PHP (uses various Laravel components but is branching away from a Laravel architectural layout (core dev also created his own JSON-API package for PHP)).

We are always looking for new contributors either contributing to core or to the 3rd party extension development ecosystem :D

This is not my personal project but I always find ways to keep myself involved as it is a beautiful and modern approach to forums (NEEDS LOTS OF <33333333333333)

I',m not plugging a repo - but I AM looking for one. Specifically iOS / Swift 4 / Activity Indicator that is lite/simple with the ability to display an indicator and a short phrase of text (<20 chars).

Reason I'm asking here is that all I can find are bloated, really bloated or far too complex for my needs.

Keep up the good work you clever Open Sourcers!

Thanks! I'm glad you think so.

For an introduction, they're good, but there is a couple hundred object calls that are still missing at this point. There is a LOT of content to represent, and I'm still trying to find the best way to do so. :)

Elixir School is looking for contributions and its a GREAT project for first-time contributors, people who are actively learning Elixir, looking to learn Elixir or Elixir experts!

Elixir School is an open-source Elixir curriculum with lots of open issues for new content across all levels. You can also contribute by providing translations for existing content. You can get involved by:

  • Choosing an open issue here
  • Opening a new issue describing content you want to see
  • Help us translate new and updated content! Visit elixirschool.com/es/report/ (where "es" is the language code), find a lesson that is out of date, check out the English version of the lesson and open a PR to make them match!

Help us grow the Elixir community and make it beginner-friendly and resource-rich
