Pact maintainer guide #101

Open mefellows opened 1 year ago

mefellows commented 1 year ago

Problem Maintainers of a Pact client language currently lack a detailed implementation and ongoing maintenance guide. The Pact ecosystem and feature suite is also quite vast, and it can be hard to know when a client language is "done".

Solution In consultation with the open source maintainer and contributor community, PactFlow will be building a set of guides, tutorials/workshops, test criteria and a reference language that demonstrates how to use the various SDKs to create a feature complete language.

Called "Maintainer Experience", it is an accessible set of educational materials, and improvements to our core SDKs to simplify the experience for maintainers and community contributors contributing to the ecosystem.

The Maintainer Guide is a detailed manual that language maintainers can use to create a new language from scratch, and maintain existing ones.
