Swag-for-dev: Adopt awesome list conventions

Created on 19 Feb 2018  路  5Comments  路  Source: swapagarwal/swag-for-dev

The format of this project is very similar to the awesome lists originally started by Sindre Sorhus. That's why I think it would be a good idea to turn this project into an awesome list as well.

Benefits of being an awesome list:

  • Be part of a huge network of hundreds of awesome lists
  • Get a place in sindresorhus/awesome, an 'awesome list of awesome lists' and one of GitHub's most starred projects
  • Get included in tools that scrape awesome lists, such as Pretty Awesome Lists
  • Adopt a clearly defined set of guidelines that make it easy to read and contribute to the list

Requirements:

  • Rename the project to awesome-swag (or awesome-dev-swag or similar)
  • Display the awesome badge in the readme
  • Add a suitable license (like CC0)
  • Add a contribution guide
  • Add a code of conduct (optional but recommended)
  • Adopt the stylistic guidelines (this is mostly fulfilled already)
  • After the project is at least 30 days old, submit a PR to sindresorhus/awesome to add it to the 'awesome list of awesome lists'

Most of this could be easily done using the official Yeoman generator.

This could also be used as an opportunity to clean up and categorize the swag into different categories, such as free/paid, difficulty level, active/inactive etc.

It's just a recommendation. We accept lists without the awesome- prefix too.

I'm definitely looking forward to add it to the awesome list.
However, I don't see the requirement of renaming it to start with awesome- prefix. Check out https://github.com/ripienaar/free-for-dev and https://github.com/tvvocold/FOSS-for-Dev and let me know your thoughts on this. 馃槆

It says so on https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome/blob/master/create-list.md but seeing as the repos you linked are named differently it likely isn't enforced

It's just a recommendation. We accept lists without the awesome- prefix too.

Closing as it's no longer a Markdown list.
