Update contributing guide

[cassidoo]

Right now CONTRIBUTING.md could use some more guidance at the top.

Add more of a walkthrough for users, for example:

• "If you want to add a new event, go here"
• "If you want to add a new resource, do it like this"
• etc.

Also, add contribution guidelines for folks wanting to do minor fixes like typos, or more structural code changes.

hi!
i'd like to work on this issue, if it's still available. thanks (●'◡'●)

[cassidoo]

@iambel go for it!

Love this initiative! ❤

We might as well want to consider having:

• if folks should or no need to create issue before working on a fix
• if folks can go ahead working on an issue and creating a PR without asking permission or if they need to ask permission first and get assigned

Which one to apply is maintainers' call. 👍🏼

Also:

• As there is no issue form & PR template yet in this repo, what info would you want to have in the issue & PR from contributors? For example:

  • Issue: Clear description, how to reproduce a bug (if it's bug reporting), screenshot/screen recording if it's UI related, etc.
  • PR: Clear description, link to the issue (if any), etc.

Edit: What I mean by issue form here is the form to submit a bug report and feature request.

Adding clarity might be helpful for new (even experienced!) folks in OSS. And it'll make the maintainers' tasks lighter as well.😊

I'll chime in more ideas when I can think more! ✨

Hi!

I am looking forward to fix this issue if it is still open, thanks!

[adiati98]

Hey @LukysYeep ,
This issue is already assigned. You can see at the "assignees" section on the right. 🙂

[LukysYeep]

Oh my bad, I did not notice @adiati98 ,
is it fine, if I collaborate on this issue? 😊

[adiati98]

Hey @LukysYeep,
Coming from this comment, I'm currently also sort of collaborating by chiming in ideas here.

If you have some thoughts, you can comment here.
The maintainers of the repo might have ideas or responses to your thoughts. 🙂

Thanks all!

@iambel @LukysYeep you're always welcome to work on things, no need to ask! Thanks for volunteering to help. Sorry for swooping in and making an update :)

I've asked Copilot Agent mode to incorporate the suggestions from here (thanks @adiati98 !) and make updates to the file: #295

[iambel]

Oh, so it's already finished?

[karasowles]

Not necessarily - does the contributing guide look clear enough now? It might still need improvements.
