Good idea @Lymah123. Documentation is often not talked about enough in open source. What do you think @BekahHW?

[BekahHW]

I wonder how this would fit into the current course structure. Right now, we're looking at a general overview. This is more of an exploration of different types of contribution.

Maybe we start a new section after the Secret Sauce section? We could call it something like "Types of Contributions," and then there would be a section on Documentation, Code, Triaging. @CBID2 what do you think?

[Christine Belzie]

Yeah I like the idea @BekahHW. We can further organize this into subsections

Non-coding

• Documentation
• graphic design
• blog writing
  -Examples of contributions that exemplify each style

Coding contributions

• Fixing bugs
• making code more accessible
• Adding features
• Examples of contributions that exemplify each style

Alright. Thanks for putting my ideas into consideration @BekahHW and @CBID2 .

I appreciate it.

One more question, can I start my research and writing on the subsection? I will give @BekahHW and @CBID2 for review on each section. Let me know your take on that.

[Christine Belzie]

Sure @Lymah123! 😊 For the examples, I suggest looking through the Highlights section to find them! 😊

[Lymah123]

Alright. Thank you.
