## What you can do

### You want to learn and use Nix?

This project would not be possible without you.
Try to use it as your primary resource, however incomplete it may appear.

We ask you to liberally open issues and document all problems and questions that arise.
Please also state your learning goals and the paths you have taken so far.

Sharing your first-hand experience is invaluable to better guide our efforts, and will immediately help improve these guides for yourself and everyone else.

### You are a beginner and want to get involved in improving documentation

The documentation team is currently carrying out a documentation survey. As we work through this project, updates are made to this [Documentation Survey](./maintainers/working_groups/learning_journey/documentation-survey.md) markdown page.
Its purpose is to provide overview of the types, topics, and volume of existing documentation resources and inform future work.

We would love for you to get involved.
Here is how you can help:

1. Familiarize yourself with the format described at the top of the Documentation Survey page.
2. Contribute by making pull requests. Your change should add details to one individual link (bullet point) following the specified format.
3. Ensure consistency with existing entries. Your contributions should align with the style and format of previously added bullet points.
4. When dealing with a larger resource like the [Nixpkgs manual](https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs), start by creating a pull request with a structured outline. Then fill in the details section-by-section, submitting separate pull requests for each section.

### You have experience teaching Nix?

You will probably have observed where learners get stuck most often, and which typical needs and questions they have.
You may have your own written notes for classes, trainings, or presentations.

Please share your experience and help us inform the structure and detailed contents the guides.
It would be great if you could contribute examples, wordings, or illustrations that proved helpful to your students.

### You are a domain expert using Nix?

If you are proficient in applying Nix to a domain-specific problem, and want to share your expertise on best practices, please check the table of contents.
Does existing material on your subject meet your standards?
How could we improve it?
Is there a popular application of Nix' capabilities not yet covered?
We would be glad to incorporate your insights.
