Closed first-timers[bot] closed 1 year ago

first-timers[bot] commented 2 years ago

Hi, this is a first-timers-only issue. This means we've worked to make it more legible to folks who either haven't contributed to our codebase before, or even folks who haven't contributed to open source before.

If that's you, we're interested in helping you take the first step and can answer questions and help you out as you do. Note that we're especially interested in contributions from people from groups underrepresented in free and open source software!

We know that the process of creating a pull request is the biggest barrier for new contributors. This issue is for you πŸ’

If you have contributed before, consider leaving this one for someone new, and looking through our general help wanted issues. Thanks!

πŸ€” What you will need to know.

Nothing. This issue is meant to welcome you to Open Source :) We are happy to walk you through the process.

πŸ“‹ Step by Step

See this page for some help in taking your first steps!

Hello, as this was originally for @OlawaleYaqub but we did not hear from them in a while, I'm going to let @belfarz take it, since there has already been a PR for it raised. However, for future issues, please sign up for an issue at https://github.com/publiclab/plots2/issues/11105 or check if the previous person is still working on it, and we would like to respect who asked first, going forward. Thank you!
