I’m preparing to open source a 2+ year project (a calendar app) next week. I’m trying to make things attractive for potential contributors, so I’m:

  • creating a docs site and cleaning up the code.
  • trying to watch devs I know install things and observe where they get stuck
  • considering doing a quick & minimal launch on Product Hunt

Anything else I could be doing to increase the odds of devs finding and using the code? Other than cleaning up the code, anything about the repo I should keep in mind?
