Summary assesment

How friendly is this project for beginner contributors? This project does not require much technical knowledge besides TypeScript. I picked this project because I found them at a service fair and though it was interesting. Maintainers are fast to respond, even though the team is small. There are also beginner friendly contributor tags, so I would say this project is friendly.

Do the maintainers respond helpfully to questions in issues? Yes, responses are helpful and very quick. A little hard to judge right now, since there hasn't been that much discussion so far.

Are people friendly in the issues, discussion forum, and chat (for example, IRC or Slack)? Yes, people are generally friendly.

Do pull requests get reviewed? Yes, they get reviewed very frequently.

Do maintainers thank people for their contributions? No, but I think "looks good to me" is probably how maintainers thank their contributors for most projects. If we consider that, then yes.

Are there special skills required to contribute to the project? If so, what are they? TypeScript in general. For some of their more specific issues (since the project is moving from a no-code environment to TypeScript), will need knowledge of AirTable (database), Tailwind (css), Twilio (chatbot API).

Are there any special hardware/software requirements to be able to contribute to the project? If so, what are they? Github and npm.
