You want to help? Great!! Here's what you need to know.
Contributing to DevEvents is very easy with the GitHub markdown editor; you can do it all from your browser. (You are also welcome to use a standard PR process if you would prefer.)
- Browse to README.md, the actual file behind it all
- Click the Edit this file pencil icon
- Make your changes, respecting the rules below please
- Use the Preview Changes tab at the top to make sure everything still looks right
- Scroll to the Propose file change section at the bottom
- Supply a basic description of your change in the first field (
Add Super Awesome Conf 2019
) - Hit the Propose file change button
- After navigating to the next page, hit the Create pull request button
- We are only interested in Australian based events, and no earlier than 2016
- The event should be of interest to the dev community (specialist and related topics are fine e.g. AI and agile)
- Please add events in chronological order within the relevant year
- Check any links you are adding are correct
- Ensure dates are in dd-mmm-yyyy format (in case we want to parse this data later). For example,
01-Jan-2019
. Use TBC if the date is unconfirmed or unknown. - Ensure no additional spaces or formatting characters are present (this will make parsing easier later)
- Ensure states are specified as VIC, NSW, ACT, WA, SA, NT, QLD, ALL, TAS, OTH (Other)
- Currently only active meetup pages are listed on the main page
- If you are adding meetups to a new state page, ensure you add the page link to the main events page
