#NWTWWHB

2023-12-22

It's vacation time which means... `astro-icon` v1 is finally coming! 🙌
I started this effort months ago but was feeling too burned out to finish. In the spirit of #NWTWWHB, it's finally time to pull the trigger.

Keep an eye on github.com/natemoo-re/astro-ic for updates. Proper docs coming in github.com/natemoo-re/astro-ic as well.

The #WriteTheDocs talk by @sarah11918 about encouraging community-driven documentation was very helpful. Sarah introduced the power of the Not Worse Than What We Had Before (
#NWTWWHB ) approach to accepting contributions to docs.

Sharing the lovely sketchnote of my talk, crafted by Linette Voller. (linettevoller.com/)

Thanks for having me, ! And thanks for the kind comments I woke up to in my time zone! 😂

Now, it's FriYay Merge Day in Astro Docs Discord, where we see how many PRs we can get over the threshold, sending community contributors into the weekend with virtual confetti. 🎊

Join us at docs.astro.build for general docs merriment & mayhem!

Sketchnote for my talk: Balancing Quality and Community in open source documentation. Some key points include: docs must meet the needs of the community, not just be accurate. Astro docs are: collaboarative, responsive, participatory. If a PR you receive is not to your standard, what did you fail to communicate to your community re: what you wanted? Find the contributor's super power & motivation, and harness these for good. Every PR is an opportunity to help someone contribute.

Love this phrase from @sarah11918 - "Not worse than what we had before" #NWTWWHB

From her presentation, "Happy Contributors, High Standards: pick two! Balancing quality and community in open source documentation" at Write The Docs Australia 2022 conference.
