GSoD '21 Weekly Updates

Week 1 (17th - 23rd May 2021)

The first phase was to do an audit of the User Guide and Reference to find out duplicate content, missing links etc. I read the Diataxis framework documentation thoroughly for this task. I got started with a template inspired by ESLint's past GSoD project. I finished auditing the first 4 pages of the User Guide. I wanted to become fluent with the development process simultaneously so I also solved a beginner-friendly issue (#7992).

Week 2 (24th - 30th May 2021)

There was a Documentation meeting on Monday where we discussed about updating the Building NumPy API and reference docs. I made an issue detailing the requirements and submitted a PR against it during the week (#19104). I made another PR to address the missing links that I found in the process of the audit (#19115). I also set up a project board in my fork of the repo to keep track of the issues and pull requests I was making. At the end of the week, I opened another issue to plan the merging of two duplicate docs for array broadcasting (#19136). I finally got around to writing a draft for my blog, detailing my application process.

Week 3 (31st May - 6th June 2021)

Published my first GSoD blog on Medium and dev.to. Completed 90% of User Guide audit.
