👋 Hi all, I am Abdur-Rahmaan from somewhere tiny called Mauritius. I have the habit of contributing to OpenSource and decided to build a tool to address a gap i've been facing. Oftentimes to contribute to a serious OpenSource project or a big codebase at work, it requires a certain level of knowledge. A huge amount of it sometimes. So, instead of writing onboarding materials from scratch, it's quicker to point people to a list of resources they should consult. This save your time and lets the person view the best resource around. This is what contriblearn does. It allows repo owners and maintainers to have create a course based on resources on the huge internet. You can organise resources in sections. The navigation is Github-inspired to give people an already familiar navigation flow. It's also OpenSource as well.

This looks like a killer product for my previous engineering teams. What made you build the product?

@franksondors Well, my first serious opensource experience as contributor was around SQLite. LumoSQL maintains a knowledge-base. They were porting it over. Dan Shearer, the maintainer was kind enough to add in it what people need to know in order to dive into the project. I said, well, that's awesome, how can we provide it as a tool. That's how i built it!
