Feel free to suggest sections!

If you want to help writing the newsletter:

  • Grab one of the "๐Ÿ†“ free" sections by leaving a comment like "I'd like to work on {section_name_1} and {section_name_2}".
  • Mentions in brackets (like "๐Ÿ†“ free (@ozkriff ?)") are just an invitation to write the corresponding section if you want, but anyone is free to take it.
  • Write a short overview:
    • Use provided links as a starting point.
    • Try to maintain a consistent style with the rest of the newsletter and run markdownlint, please.
    • Insert line breaks (softbreak) at 80 chars, please.
    • Use third-person pronouns even if you write about your project updates.
    • DM me on Discord or Telegram if there're any questions.
  • Send a PR to the source branch (example: #75)
    • Mention this issue in your PR's description to link it all together.

I'm hoping to release this newsletter on 2020.08.03/04, so a soft deadline for all section PRs is Saturday (2020.08.01).

Current structure/status (I'll try to keep this updated):

Final steps:

  • final review - โœ”๏ธ done by everyone
