feat: Add section on Growing Your Project to the Maintainers Section #235
Open
Description
Right now, we have a Maintainers section. It includes a basic guide on how to use OpenSauced for maintainers. But what if maintainers want to grow their project? How can they do that with OpenSauced?
Implementing the section
- Add
growing-your-project.md
todocs > maintainers
- In
sidebar.js
, add `maintainers/growing-your-project' path below the guide: "maintainers/maintainers-guide-to-open-sauced", - In
growing-your-project.md
, create the following sections:- When to grow your project (brief explanation of need to get more contributors or add people to teams (maintainers, triage, docs)
- How to identify new contributors and team members
- Look at existing contributors. How is there participation? Are they engaged? Are they invested in the success of the project?
- Create an insight page with your projects. Add the most active contributors to a list.
- Recruiting team members and contributors
- Create an insight page with projects similar to yours. Add contributors you think might be a good fit to a list. After spending some time monitoring, reach out to them.
- Understanding Team Participation.
- It's important to monitor team participation. Once you have someone on a team, add them to your list to monitor your participation. (Use the team sync feature -- link to the gif). It's useful to set a timeframe for how active they need to be.
