Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Make it easier for people looking to contribute to get started. Should target both programmers and non-programmers.

Documentation:

  • Add new "contribute to memgpt!" docs page, with information on:
  • What our current main roadmap is
  • How to find good things to work on (using github labels + discord)
  • For non-programmers, an example on how to contribute to the documentation just using github features
  • For programmers, can link to CONTRIBUTING.md, which is where we can store information on making PRs with forks

GitHub organization:

  • Make better use of labels/tags
  • Have a "contributor" project viewer so people can self-assign etc

Comment from @galeep on Discord:

I think that issue is a good start to bootstrapping that effort. Issues & labels, plus what to expect. What does a good PR look like? Highlighting standards, best practices, etc., plus pointers to some of GitHub's resources for people who've never contributed via fork/PR (includes a surprising amount of people who are not newbies but haven't contributed to projects outside work or school)

Suggest welcoming localized docs/translations as well - even if not a focus, it is low-hanging fruit that helps expand the project's reach, and makes a great first issue :)

Language filters on templates are for system, persona, and human. And some functions are written for AIs trained in other languages.
I think Multi Lingual is the way to go. perhaps specific language like anna_pa.en-US.txt

I did a bit of revising of the contributor guide, still could use some work (good first issue ;)): https://memgpt.readme.io/docs/contributing
