There are a lack of repositories to start from to build community driven open source projects. Pristine Typescript is a complete starting point, it follows a Documentation Driven Development approach, and can be used as a resource to augment existing documentation.
There are 2 options for using pristine with your project.
- Fork this repo as the start of your own, OR
- follow these instructions to use it on an existing repository.
There are many ways to drive open source development. Documenting the problem in the README gives a middle ground between technical and non-technical specifications. This allows organizing solutions to this challenge around community and documentation.
[...] a beautifully crafted library with no documentation is also damn near worthless. If your software solves the wrong problem or nobody can figure out how to use it, there’s something very bad going on.
