How to contribute
Thank you for your interest in contributing to our GitBook project! Your efforts help to create valuable, high-quality content for everyone who relies on this resource. Before you get started, here are a few important guidelines.
Things to Consider Before Making Changes
Check for Existing Pages Before creating a new page or section, please verify whether a page covering your topic already exists. If yes, consider adding your content to the existing page to maintain coherence and avoid duplication.
Contributing to Existing Pages When contributing to an existing page, ensure that your additions are seamlessly integrated into the existing content. This helps maintain flow and structure.
Guidelines for Contributing to Pages
Proper Structure Each page should follow a logical and clear structure that aids both learning and reference. We recommend organizing content into sections like:
Theory: Provide the background or conceptual explanation of the topic.
Cheat Sheet: If possible provide a list of a summary of commands/information
Usage: Include practical applications, examples, or step-by-step guides.
Resources: List any external references, related tools, or further reading.
Citing Other Authors
If you are incorporating content from another source or author, make sure to credit them in the Resources section. This not only maintains transparency but also respects the intellectual contributions of others.
When you use a picture from another author: Put the source in the caption, like : "Source:<link>"
Don't use pictures from other sources than your own
The copyright is very strict, when it comes to copying pictures from other sources. Only use your own pictures.
Language Style Please write in a style that strikes a balance between accessibility and professionalism. The goal is to make the content understandable for a broad audience while retaining an authoritative tone. Aim for clarity, avoiding overly technical jargon where possible, but still providing depth where needed.
Make It Useful for Both Beginners and Experts
For Beginners: Ensure that your content introduces new topics in a way that is easy to follow, providing enough context and explanation for users who are unfamiliar with the subject.
For Experts: Include details like key commands, configurations, or technical insights that will help more experienced users quickly find the information they need.
