Introduction to dotnet-content-creators
Overview
The dotnet-content-creators project is a comprehensive collection of resources highlighting various .NET content creators worldwide. This project is part of a broader initiative, WeAreDotnet, founded by Tim Cadenbach and Matthias. It seeks to connect and celebrate individuals who contribute to the .NET community through a wide range of content, including blogs, YouTube channels, Twitch streams, books, and tutorials.
What Are Creators?
Creators within this context are enthusiasts and experts who generate educational and engaging content focused on .NET technologies. Their work spans multiple platforms, offering free or paid resources that cater to different learning preferences and skill levels. These creators help inform and educate others about .NET technologies, tools, and best practices.
Language Requirement
The project exclusively lists creators and channels that offer content in English. This emphasis ensures accessibility to a global audience, making it easier for English-speaking individuals to find relevant .NET resources and creators to follow.
Regional Categorization
Although the country origin of each creator is noted, it serves primarily as a method to organize the creators into sections. This structure encourages exploration and discovery of content creators from different regions, fostering a more diverse and inclusive understanding of the global .NET community.
Channels and Tags
Each creator is associated with channels, which are platforms they primarily use to disseminate content. A creator can list up to five links to these platforms. Additionally, the creators are tagged with relevant keywords (up to five) that describe their focus areas, expertise, or the type of content they produce.
Contribution Guidelines
The project is open to contributions from the community. Enthusiasts can add their favorite .NET content creators by creating a pull request (PR) with the creator’s details, channels, and tags. These contributions help maintain a rich and up-to-date repository of .NET expertise.
