Share your fav open-source projects that could use detailed getting started guide. - eviltoast

Hi,

I’m a technical writer looking to build my portfolio in technical documentation. I’ve written technical blogs, how-to guides, and white papers for SaaS brands, but I want to gain experience working on back-end documentation.

I’m familiar with Python, HTML, CSS, C/C++ (to some extent), and SQL. Additionally, I’ve done considerable writing for cloud computing clients, so I have a solid understanding of cloud concepts.

I can work with Markdown, Git, or even Google Docs.

Please let me know if you’re working on an open-source project that could use some documentation. Alternatively, if you know of an existing open-source tool that could benefit from documentation, I’d be happy to contact the developer.

    Thank you. I’ll look into NixOS as we need Linux documentation to welcome more users from Windows.

      If that’s your intend than it might be better to pick individual arch wiki pages or improve the entry documentation. Many people refer to there from all distro because of its volume.

      A “how to read tech documentation” could add value for this target group.
