Which change are you proposing?

  • Suggesting edits to an existing topic or collection

Editing an existing topic or collection

I'm suggesting these edits to an existing topic or collection:

  • Image (and my file is *.png, square, dimensions 288x288, size <= 75 kB)
  • Content (and my changes are in index.md)

Please replace this line with an explanation of why you think these changes should be made.

Curating a new topic or collection

  • I've formatted my changes as a new folder directory, named for the topic or collection as it appears in the URL on GitHub (e.g. https://github.com/topics/[NAME] or https://github.com/collections/[NAME])
  • My folder contains a *.png image (if applicable) and index.md
  • All required fields in my index.md conform to the Style Guide and API docs: https://github.com/github/explore/tree/main/docs

Please replace this line with an explanation of why you think this topic or collection should be curated.

Something that does not neatly fit into the binary options above

  • My suggested edits are not about an existing topic or collection, or at least not a single one

  • My suggested edits conform to the Style Guide and API docs: https://github.com/github/explore/tree/main/docs
