Skill tree #4

Open xd009642 opened 3 years ago

I've seen skill trees used to coordinate some medium/larger projects i.e. making firefox faster or const-eval in the rust compiler. And started wondering about the utility in filling in the gaps in something like a language ecosystem (i.e. ML :wink:). It might also help new contributors find a niche to work in.

Obviously this would be more scaled at the components needed to build things at an application level not to the depth of a specific project. It might also be nicer in terms of specificity than arewelearningyet/task-board. Just wondering about peoples thoughts, I can try and have a play around with this over the week and see.

Examples:

Sorry this took so long to reply to! I've also been thinking about ways to look at some gaps in the ecosystem and how to guide new contributors towards them, and this sounds like it would be a neat way to think about/visualize that concept. As you pointed out, there's definitely a bit of a gap in that area between the Task Board and AreWeLearningYet, which while helpful in some ways, don't exactly lay out the information in a way that's easy to get a more high-level view.
