Any Open Source projects in need of documentation writer?

12•tree666•1h ago
Curious about projects where a volunteer doc writer could make some impact.

Yes! I recently started maintaining https://github.com/AnalogJ/scrutiny a self-hosted service for collecting and monitoring hard drive SMART data. Right now the docs are just a somewhat organized collection of markdown files in the repo. It would be great to have something more polished, rendered by GitHub pages, etc, but I have been prioritizing bug fixes and don't have the bandwidth (or expertise really) to improve the docs.

The latest release has ~500k downloads so it's a popular project and your contribution would be a pretty significant impact.

Perhaps one of the pages gathering projects that need help will be inspiring for you, i.e.: https://up-for-grabs.net/#/filters?date=6months&labels=&tags... or https://www.codetriage.com/ ?
