Description

@wetneb

We often have new contributors coming in who don't know anything at all about OpenRefine as a user. They might be coming to the project because they want to gather experience contributing to an open source project (for instance: Outreachy/GSoC applicants), or because we hired them to work in a particular capacity in the project (for instance: hiring a designer, a security consultant, a community manager…)

To onboard those new contributors on the project, it would be helpful to have a pre-defined set of resources we can point them at, to learn how to use OpenRefine. This knowledge of the tool from a user perspective is generally very useful to get involved in the project.

We currently list a few resources in passing in https://openrefine.org/docs/technical-reference/code-contributions but it would be helpful to have a bigger list, more visible (also advertised to other types of contributors, not just developers), where people would be able to find tutorials focusing on certain topics.
