Hey p5js people, | |
I recently started using p5.js. After transitioning from Processing to | |
Prcoessing.py, p5.js seems like a good step to go. Thanks for making this | |
possible, and I expect to be contributing to the Github page soon. | |
At the moment there aren't a lot of real-time conversation places for p5.js. I | |
have found the Education Page, the Forum, and of course the GitHub Issues page. | |
There are great, searchable resources, but no direct access to human resources. | |
Two months ago I attended a conference called Research Bazaar, and they set up | |
Gitter to serve the community and communications: | |
https://gitter.im/resbaz/resbaz. The goal is to provide a peer-supported "help | |
desk" that anyone can access. Much like a mailing list: the services is free to | |
use, and you get to socialise and discuss problems online. | |
I'd like to propose to set up a Gitter chatroom for processing/p5.js. It would | |
benefit a multitude of users: | |
* Developers could share ideas and discuss implementation details there. | |
* New users could ask simple questions that can get help. | |
* Github Community is well-integrated in Gitter. You could view code, status, | |
run tests, and all kinds of things through it. | |
* General users could suggest new ideas and chat it out. | |
* Gitter can build a stronger, visible community. | |
I figured the quickest way to start a conversation is to say hello | |
via email. If you think this is a great idea, or have other suggestions and | |
comments, please don't hesitate to email me back. | |
I can also be reached by @Spaxe on Github, and @Xavier_Ho on Twitter. | |
Cheers, | |
Xav |
