From 6f04d0042ade3c799c62ebaa4ebb77db5fdf17f1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marcus Kazmierczak Date: Fri, 17 Jan 2020 17:13:02 -0800 Subject: [PATCH 01/10] Update main project README Update main project repository reamde with various updates that bring it current for now and down the line. First organized it into a more general getting started recognizing the three levels that people might be coming to the project: as a User, as a Devleoper, and as a Contributor For User - added links to the user documentation, support forums, and how to report an issue For Develoepr - added links to the developer documentation For Contributor - simplifed the contributor sections and links to the contributors guide I removed the links at the bottom since those are mostly dated from when the project was starting out and justifying itself. These links can be included elsewhere for background and context, and not necessary on the welcoming page. --- README.md | 72 +++++++++++++++---------------------------------------- 1 file changed, 19 insertions(+), 53 deletions(-) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index b0ff20fdfc4c2..413b9ccd9d794 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -4,76 +4,42 @@ ![Screenshot of the Gutenberg Editor, editing a post in WordPress](https://cldup.com/R84R5fNgrI.png) -This repo is the development hub for the editor focus in WordPress Core. `Gutenberg` is the project name. +Welcome to the development hub for the WordPress Gutenberg Project! -## Getting started -- **Download:** If you want to use the latest release with your WordPress site, download the latest release from the WordPress.org plugins repository. -- **Discuss:** Conversations and discussions take place in `#core-editor` channel on the Making WordPress Slack. -- **Contribute:** Development of Gutenberg happens in this GitHub repo.
