Community-committee: Creating a One-Page for Community-Building Resources

[bnb]

Someone just asked in the Education repo (https://github.com/nodejs/education/issues/31) if they could start a meetup at their school. I absolutely _love_ the initiative and thought here, and would like to see if there's some kind of document we could pull together with resources that are ready-to-use like NodeSchool.

I've had a hard time with NodeSchool myself, but that's because I've always gone solo - would be great to pull similar resources, groups, and efforts into a One Page that can be easily consumed and shared.

It's a nice idea 😸
There is an organizers wiki for Nodeschool here. https://github.com/nodeschool/organizers/wiki

You mean something different? Less nodeschool-workshop and more meetup-y?

This is a great idea, we should pull together resources like like the NodeSchool guide into one big resource page :)

@bnb i can offer to help with this. From what I understand the goal here is to create a one-pager that lists out ideas & resources for someone interested in running a node-focussed event in their community.

Rough outline could be something like....

Interested in starting a Node event for your community, here are some ideas:

1. NodeSchool - series of workshops on javascript, node and more
2. NodeTodo - self-serve contributing to node
3. Code & Learn - contributing to node with attendance of node contributors
4. Meetups - talks about the node ecosystem

_update: fixed formating_

@gautamarora Yes! That sounds awesome. Would absolutely LOVE to see a doc based on that outline.

[bnb]

@gautamarora Are you still interested in working on this? If so, we'd love to have your help! If not, absolutely zero worries - what you've shared already is a super helpful place for us to get started. 🙏

i'd be very interested in helping out for this too! let me know if you need any help or resources from the community committee @gautamarora

[gautamarora]

@bnb @pup - thanks for checking in on this. Apologies for the delay, I wont be able to get to this in jan so please go ahead in creating this doc.

[bnb]

Thanks for initially offering to help on this @gautamarora - much appreciated, and no worries about not having time. ❤️

@pup do you want to take this on, or maybe do a call-out in the next CommComm meeting to request participation?

[flickz]

Being the individual who asked for this on Nodejs/Education I will like to help with the doc. @gautamarora already provided 3 links to resources. Any suggestion on other links?

[ghost]

@bnb i'd love to get some more hands to work on this, so i think i'll bring it up in the next meeting

[bnb]

@flickz I'd suggest checking out a prior attempt at this in the Evangelism WG and the Local Initiatives Directory in the same repo 😄

[flickz]

@bnb Able to combine some ideas from Local Initiatives Directory. Here is a rough doc Community Building Resources. Feedback?
