📄 AsyncAPI Docs update (31 Jan - 11 Feb 2022)

As an Open-Source (OSS) contributor, I volunteer to write periodic updates about the AsyncAPI Docs ecosystem every 2 weeks.

🦄 This is Ale's personal summary

I want to note that this is not an official AsyncAPI Initiative update, but a personal summary I'm volunteering to write up for the OSS community. The goal is to let you know what's going on in the Docs area and how the Docs area has been teaming with other areas within the AsyncAPI Initiative. 😀👍🏽

📑 Google Season of Docs 2022

Google Season of Docs 2022 (GSoD) is coming up and the application process is opening soon on February 23, 2022. As you can imagine, I'm submitting an application for the AsyncAPI initiative once it's open. 😄

In anticipation of this, I have also created a new AsyncAPI Slack channel named #temp-gsod-2022 that you can now join here. This slack channel is a temporary channel to coordinate GSoC 2022 setup. I'll publish regular updates on where we are in the application process, so stay tuned as the applicate date grows closer. 🙂

Join the #temp-gsod-2022 slack channel for:

  • mentees identification
  • mentors identification
  • ideas identification
  • mentees and ideas and mentors matching

🎨 What Docs and Design teamed together on

For this time period, Docs got to talk through a lot of cool changes coming up within the DESIGN side of the initiative!

  • /websiteissue #453 update: Our design contributor @mcturco finished the ideation and design of our new feedback card that would be added at the bottom of each Docs page. But now we need a developer contributor to add it to the Docs.

🧐 What kind of PRs did I help edit/review/provide input?

🎥 New Educational Video Scripts

Badass and genius @barbanio strikes again, this time for creating educational and technical video scripts for a new series that explains AsyncAPI's main features.

We originally started discussing how this could be done via issue #155, but then @Barbanio created detailed outlines for a whole video series.

For now, here are her video scripts I helped review/edit/improve:

✍🏾 What main change is happening within the writing of the Docs?

I'm finally tackling the writing for /websiteissue #350 in Q1 of 2022.

As promised in the previous Gist, here is that scintillating Draft PR that can now be followed for updates: asyncapi/website#601. The goal is to have preview links to help community members better visualize current proposed changes in progress.

❤️ Thanking our Contributors

A BIG thank you 🤗 to all of our OSS contributors; without you, there would be no OSS initiative! 😄🎉

For this biweekly update Gist, let's give a round of applause to:

🙏🏽 Contributors Needed

There is always something to do for OSS Docs, and it's no different for us! 😄

We could really use contributors for the following Docs issues:

  • Development work for ✨NEW✨ Docs feedback card #453
  • Technical Writing for defining server in spec #587
  • Development work for ✨NEW✨ Docs homepage, based on new design components created in #503

That's it for now. See you in 2 weeks! -A.Q. 👩🏻‍💻 y Canela 🐕‍🦺
