Above the contact form I want a panel where developers can add blogs about anything from open source to their personal experiences. These panels should link to a medium site or whatever site you prefer. The title, a picture and a description should be visible on the home page. Make sure it is in a container which expands as the number of blogs increases.

I would like to work on this

sudz123 commented 5 years ago

Sure, but the page is almost complete so make sure it goes well with the rest of the page and the design doesn't look bad. Select a few good blogs about open source and hacktoberfest. Add a container which will hold these blogs. Put it above the contact form. Make sure each blogs are in individual sub-containers and also the Title is visible, the links are working and a small image would do too.

Should developers also be able to add any blogs they have written to this container? If so it would mean storing their basic blog details somewhere. I was thinking of using a JSON file to store the basic information to be collected.

Sure, whatever you are comfortable with. Try it and submit a PR and we will have something more solid to discuss about. There are no hard and fast rules. If this gets difficult you can also and pre-existing medium blog links with a good front end as I mentioned before.

Hi, I was working on the project today and just hit a snag. I realized that there is no way to save data to a local machine via a client application only server side. Since the website is purely client based, I'm stuck on how to save the new blog post data. Any ideas?

sudz123 commented 5 years ago

Server Linking can be done, however I don't think this website is the right one for it. How about just stick to client side and link pre-hosted blogs from websites like medium? Since the design has been almost finalised I would say your front-end would be given more importance than your back-end.

Hey @sudz123 I am new in open source. Can I take this up as my first issue?
