📚 New "Building and Engaging Your Community" chapter in "Creating Your Own Open-Source Project" module!

This is just the first version, which we will refine and expand with more detailed information and examples over time. We're taking it step-by-step since it's always challenging to find spare time alongside other open-source activities :)

Check it out here: https://openresource.dev/guide/creating-your-own-open-source-project/building-and-engaging-your-community

Starting the day by deleting around 200 spam GitHub Discussions. Always a pleasure...

If GitHub's looking for AI topics: it could really help maintainers by spotting spam, blocking accounts, and automatically deleting discussions/issues so they have nothing to do.

Following up this morning's post, ever heard of the GitHub ghost user? 👻

After removing a lot of spam GitHub Discussions and probably some deletions made on GitHub side, I encountered some phantom notifications.

This is a confirmed bug, but thanks to the GitHub Support, there is a workaround for that:

  1. Be sure to treat all the real notifications you have to have a zero-inbox.
  2. Run the following script to mark notifications as "read":

gh api --method PUT -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" /notifications -F read=true

Following up on finding open-source projects to contribute to: https://goodfirstissue.dev is another great resource!

It curates easy pickings from popular open-source projects and narrows down projects for new contributors.

Projects must meet criteria like 3+ 'good first issue' labels, 10+ contributors, a README.md with setup instructions, and a CONTRIBUTING.md with guidelines. Projects must also be maintained.

You can filter projects by programming languages.

Most of the time, you don’t need to look far to find an open-source project to contribute to. Use a tool regularly and see room for improvement? Consider contributing!

Still can't find a project? Check out aggregators like https://up-for-grabs.net/ for curated lists of projects needing help. Filter by language, difficulty, and more!

Check out our latest small article on integrating Repobeats into your GitHub README for a dynamic visual representation of your repository's activity!
https://openresource.dev/articles/repobeats

The tool itself is free, but not open source. Still, it can be a nice way to show the activity of your GitHub repo and encourage people to contribute, and celebrate your top contributors. That's up to you to decide :)

TBH, as a non-native speaker, I've always struggled with whether to write "Open Source", "open-source", "open source", ... Just found a helpful rule in the Microsoft Style Guide: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/style-guide/a-z-word-list-term-collections/o/open-source

The Open {re}Source website has been updated accordingly.
