├── CONTRIBUTING.md └── README.md /CONTRIBUTING.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | Contributing to the Node.js Hardware Team 2 | ========================================= 3 | 4 | So you're interested in helping the Hardware Team, that's awesome! 5 | 6 | The Hardware Team is an open team. If you want to participate in a meaningful way, hop into the issues or Gitter! 7 | 8 | ## How To Contribute 9 | 10 | The Hardware Team uses two communications mechanisms for all of our work. 11 | 12 | All official work is done via [GitHub issues](https://github.com/nodejs/hardware/issues). All documentation and initiatives are cataloged here, as well as some discussion of these topics. Discussion in these issues should be kept on-topic and brief to the extend possible, because these issues serve as documentation, as well as collaboration. 13 | 14 | We also use [Gitter](https://gitter.im/nodejs/hardware), a chat system similar to IRC but based around GitHub. Gitter is used for all sorts of chat, from formulating raw ideas, to more free-form discussion of specific issues, to posting funny robot videos and cat gifs. 15 | 16 | If you're interesting in participating, hop on in to Gitter and say hi! We'll give you some ideas on how and where you can help. 17 | 18 | 19 | ## Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1 20 | 21 | By making a contribution to this project, I certify that: 22 | 23 | * (a) The contribution was created in whole or in part by me and I 24 | have the right to submit it under the open source license 25 | indicated in the file; or 26 | 27 | * (b) The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best 28 | of my knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source 29 | license and I have the right under that license to submit that 30 | work with modifications, whether created in whole or in part 31 | by me, under the same open source license (unless I am 32 | permitted to submit under a different license), as indicated 33 | in the file; or 34 | 35 | * (c) The contribution was provided directly to me by some other 36 | person who certified (a), (b) or (c) and I have not modified 37 | it. 38 | 39 | * (d) I understand and agree that this project and the contribution 40 | are public and that a record of the contribution (including all 41 | personal information I submit with it, including my sign-off) is 42 | maintained indefinitely and may be redistributed consistent with 43 | this project or the open source license(s) involved. 44 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /README.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | # Hardware Team 2 | 3 | The Node.js Hardware Team loves hardware, and we hope you love hardware too! The whole ethos behind NodeBots is to make working with hardware accessible for everyone. 4 | 5 | ## Mission 6 | 7 | The purpose of this team is to identify and remove barriers to entry for working with NodeBots. We are focused on barriers to entry that are related to Node.js and surrounding technologies, such as NPM. 8 | 9 | This team is focused on the difficulties that users encounter when consuming common hardware libraries and the difficulties that developers face when creating and distributing these libraries. 10 | 11 | ## Contributing 12 | 13 | See [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/nodejs/hardware/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) for information about participating in the Hardware Team. We'd love to have you! 14 | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
