Open Source Project Template

Stage 2: Incubation

What it is

A template project containing 'Community Health Files' and relevant checklists.

Its intention is to be a practical starter when releasing a project as Open Source.

It was created in a general way to be usable for anyone, and proposes well known conventions and de-facto standards when possible.

Scaling potential:
