This is great advice. Adding to the docs while gathering info is something I did in my main project and has been helpful when new teammates join. They have it easier :P

IMO in terms of making the best impression when joining a new project: Docs are a huge one. I think people always wish they had better docs, and when new folks come in and show they have the discipline to contribute in this area it goes a long way in building trust.
