Could the
DEVELOPMENT.md
file please be renamed to eitherCONTRIBUTING.md
orHACKING.md
? I actually missed it at first and was working on one until I noticed theDEVELOPMENT
file. ^-^'There likely are other projects that use the term
DEVELOPMENT
, but this is the first I've seen it. Meanwhile,CONTRIBUTING
andHACKING
are normalized across open-source projects and even platforms like GitHub, GitLab, etc.Here you can see GitHub recommends people to read it the first time they contribute, and it'll always be on the side when opening a PR under Helpful resources when named this way. At the moment it's not listed since GitHub doesn't recognize
DEVELOPMENT.md
as a resource for contributors.Here you can see if GitLab finds a
CONTRIBUTING.md
file, it will add a badge to bring it to the users attention.
