BLOG: Hoodie Friends: projects we love and rely on

[gr2m]

Hoodie couldn't exist without a lot of amazing projects & people out there. I'd love to start a series where we introduce a project we rely on, or simply love, and not introduce the project and how we use it at Hoodie, but especially the people behind it.

Here’s a list of projects that come to mind, I'll keep them updated.

• API Blueprint / Apiary
• browserify
• CouchDB
• Ember.js
• Github
• greenkeeper.io
• hapi
• JSON API
• JSConf
• npm
• PouchDB
• semantic-release
• tap / tape / nyc / istanbul / coveralls
• Travis
• Your First PR

If people agree that this is an idea worth exploring, I'm happy to take ownership of this one and figure out how to make it work, without being a writer myself :D

Firstly, I love this idea. Thank you for also adding YFPR to the list, it means a lot. Secondly, would you mind adapting your proposal so it fits this template: https://github.com/hoodiehq/editorial/blob/master/documents/pitch-template.md? I would like to set a consistent example for new contributors :)

I would make separate blog posts for every listed project :) Let me try for YourFirstPR

Title: Hoodie ❤️ YourFirstPR

> What is your blog post about? Describe it in about one paragraph.

An interview-style blog post with Charlotte about how YourFirstPR started,
what is happening right now, what are plans for the future, and why Hoodie
loves it very much.

> Approximately how long do you think the post will be?

I have no idea, please help? I’d rather keep it short, but it should be as long
as it takes to tell the entire story of YourFirstPR

> Approximately how long do you think it will take you to write this post?

I’m not a writer so take my estimations with caution.
Preparation: 1-2h, writing: 1-2h, editing / finishing: 2h

> Do you think your post could make use of any illustrations or photographs?

Yes :) 

> Do you have any links to previous writing?

No :(

> Where else can we find you on the internet? (e.g. your blog, Tumblr, Medium, Twitter, etc.)

Twitter & Github: gr2m

> Anything else you want to tell us?

This could be good content for a podcast episode, too. 

Is that helpful?

@gr2m Typically that info would go in the OP of the created issue.

For an OSS post (volunteer), this shoudn't be a huge deal. Unless there are objections, make the document however long it needs to be to convey the message you want to give.

I would be happy to edit it, if it gets PRed into this repo.

Otherwise it looks good!

what do you mean with "OP of the created issue"? I'm not sure what OP stands for

[bnb]

Original post, so the content you initially wrote when you created the issue (the one with the list of projects).

Let's pick a project.
