Nerves Core Team
Hacktoberfest 2021 + Nerves
I love the idea of Hacktoberfest and really want to encourage others to produce quality OSS contributions.
In Nerves, there are a few things that would really bring that quality to the project:
- Documentation!
- This is both the simplest, and the hardest. But it really brings the biggest impact and appreciation from the core team. Fixed mistakes, new relevant content, better instructions…its all great

Search Nerves, NervesHub, and related projects by issue tag:

- Livebooks!
- nerves_livebook is also becoming a great source of documentation and examples.
- NervesTips
- This is a really simple page at tips.nerves-project.org to showcase small tips and TIL content. I’m not a web/UI guy though so it could definitely use some love if more can be improved. See the issues
- Search Nerves and related projects by issue tag:
- Tracing and introspection
- Do you have tips for tracing/introspection that can be applied to Nerves hardware? Document it, show examples, start discussions!
