The expected outcome would be for the mentee to update the Hyperledger Onboarding Documentation and the Hyperledger Start Here guide (https://start-here.hyperledger.org/) to help new community members gain a quicker and deeper understanding of Hyperledger blockchain projects and technology. This would be through the development of content and graphics that are relevant to the onboarding process, based on research and outreach to members of the Hyperledger Community. The mentee will create personas and process flow diagrams to arrive at the best framework for consolidating the Hyperledger onboarding documentation into a unified and easy to access resource. Update the dashboard and the landing page for driving the user engagement. Develop the ability to search events and happenings within the Hyperledger community.
The path to contributions is optimized, specifically regarding how many clicks it takes the user to reach the contributing guidelines of each top level project.
Currently this number is 5 for each project with the navigation path looking like:
Home Page → Hyperledger Projects → Cacti (or any other project) → Repository Link (GitHub) → CONTRIBUTING.md (GitHub)
Two assumptions are made here:
- There is a CONTRIBUTING.md file (or similar, easily recognizable documentation) in the project root
- The user knows where to click, e.g. they understand that the best path forward is to make the navigation decisions as shown above
What could be helpful to users is:
- A separate link on the project detail card (where the Repository Link is) that goes directly to CONTRIBUTING.md (or similar guide)
- An additional link like the one described in 1) but this time placed on the header of the Issues page where the good-first-issue tagged issues are listed from the tracker of each project. This (might) alleviate the need for us to have a separate top level menu item specifically for the contributing guides.
Suggested bug-fixes, additional optimizations
- "List of active issues raised in last 7 days can be found here." under "Issues" does not work, as-in, when you click on it issues are shown from 2021.
- On top of the problem with issues being outdated, the lists always only appear to show one issue instead of a list of them.
- The "Issues" menu item could be renamed to "Contributions to Work On" or "Issue Tracker" or "What To Work on".
- There could be a separate menu item for "Good First Issues" which would provide a similar list of issues as the current "Issues" menu item but pre-filtered for issues that were tagged as "good-first-issue"
Relation to Hyperledger
This mentorship would help the Onboarding Task Force with updating the Onboarding documentation and resources for the Hyperledger Foundation Community. These updates should help with enabling new members of the community to engage faster and more effectively.
...
Any skills around research and documentation, including the ability to write documentation content and design and develop explainer graphs or images for use on the Hyperledger wiki.
- User experience design.
- HTML, CSS, Material UI.
- JavaScript.
- Go Lang.
- Git, Markdown.
- React framework would be an added advantage.
