WORKFLOW
PHASE 1: RESOURCE EVALUATION
When a new resource is submitted:

- Fetch the URL
- Confirm it loads properly
- Check for paywalls or registration requirements
-
Assess content quality:
- Minimum substantive content (not fluff)
- Accurate and up-to-date information
- Clear authorship/attribution
- Practical value for learners
-
Check for duplicates:
grep -r "similar-url-pattern" README.md
-
Determine appropriate category:
- Match resource topic to existing categories
- If no match, flag for new category discussion

| Criteria | Pass | Fail | N/A |
|---|
| Original, substantive content (not 2 paragraphs) | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
| Author credited | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
| Working link | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
| Alphabetically sorted | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
| Appropriate category | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
| No duplicate content | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
| Suitable for learning Zig | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
