Description

@ozkriff

Feel free to suggest sections!

If you want to help writing the newsletter:

  • Read CONTRIBUTING.md.
  • Grab some of the "🆓 free" sections by leaving a comment like "I'd like to work on {section_name_1} and {section_name_2}".
  • Mentions in brackets (like "🆓 free (@ozkriff?)") are just an invitation to write the corresponding section if you want, but anyone is free to take it.
  • Write a short overview:
    • Use provided links as a starting point.
    • Try to maintain a consistent style with the rest of the newsletter and run markdownlint, please.
    • Insert line breaks (softbreak) at 80 chars, please.
    • DM me on Discord or Telegram if there're any questions.
  • Send a PR to the source branch (example: N15: A/B Street #336)
    • Mention this issue in your PR's description to link it all together.

The deadline for all section PRs is 2021.02.03.


⚠️ It was decided to try a shorter and more limited section format: ⚠️

  • Only one image (<300kb) or GIF (<2.5mb) before the text. With an optional caption and a mandatory alt text.

  • All the (rendered) text should be under 1000 characters (including spaces and punctuation) and under 6 paragraphs (without any subsections, etc).

  • No bold/italic/etc formatting - only links and one plain list without nesting per section.

  • Third-person perspective.

  • 80 chars per MD line and no other markdownlint warnings on CI.

  • Only the following simple templates are allowed:

    See the templates

    For games/apps/libs:

    # [Gamename]
    
    ![alt text](img)
    _optional image label_
    
    [Gamename] ([GitHub], [Discord], [Twitter]) by [@nickname]
    is ... {short project description in one sentence}.
    
    {An overview of the recent updates with links to more details}.
    
    _Discussions: [/r/rust_gamedev](link), [Twiter](link), [etc](link)_
    
    {md links block}

    For articles/videos/etc:

    # [Articlename]
    
    ![alt text](img)
    _optional image label_
    
    [@nickname] published an [article] about ...
    {overview what the resource is about}.
    
    _Discussions: [/r/rust_gamedev](link), [Twiter](link), [etc](link)_
    
    {md links block}
