Node.js Contributor Cards

[amiller-gh]

The Node.js Foundation has created business cards for Node.js Foundation, and are sharing them at conferences. At NodeSummit, @bnb discussed the possibility of creating one for contributors to share at in-person events for people who are interested in getting started.

Steps to success:

• Setup static point-of-entry site (@chowdhurian / @bnb)
• Design the card (@amiller-gh / @bnb)
• Set up a url redirect from nodejs.org to static site (unassigned)
• Print cards (unassigned – likely foundation folk)
• Static will be integrated into new site after redesign – community page? (@amiller-gh)

Action items from Community Committee meeting:

1. @chowdhurian has a static page built! He will share here.
2. We're going to bring this up in the Website Redesign meeting to see if this can evolve into the Community Committee page, and be ported over easily.
3. We will re-discuss at the next CommComm meeting about next steps. @bnb, you and I should sync about design between now and then 🙂

I will have some availability upcoming to work on this, and I apologize for the long-term delay ❤️

Cool idea I can help on this :]

Built out a strawperson repo for this in an npm module format (and have published it to npm so it doesn't get squatted): https://github.com/bnb/community-card

Some specific points: this does not currently point to the website in any way, as we'd originally discussed. All the links are hard-coded into the project.

This is a format that I've been working with more and more recently. It seemingly resonates with the community, and is a relatively simple way to publish information in an evergreen and consumable format. Rough concept of the information that can/should be included on the site.

Additionally, we may want to perpetually pull the contents of the nodejs/getting-started README.md (which I've been trying to maintain more as of late) as the content for the website?

Happy to re-pick this up but there's been zero interest outside myself for over a year. If someone else wants to take it, by all means feel free to. Going to close for now, though ❤️
