Not having basic processes documented means you're practicing the Null Process. This is bad for all of your engineers. It particularly disadvantages minorities and other under-represented classes, because they have more difficulty learning unwritten processes from coworkers.
No Null Process is a set of basic process documents for how software is developed. These guidelines and checklists are inherently opinionated, so feel free to fork them and customize for your organization.
The site is hosted on GitHub Pages.
No Null Process is built with Sphinx. To build the documentation locally, run:
pip install -r requirements.txt make html
You'll only need to run pip install once. On future runs, only do make
html to re-build the documentation. The root of the documentation will be
built in _build/html/index.html.
If you're a maintainer of the project on GitHub, you can publish the latest
content on the currently checked-out branch (which should be master) with:
make publish
This will update the gh-pages branch on GitHub, which will update the web
site in a few minutes.
We have a Slack Team for real-time conversation and coordination. If you'd like to join the conversation, email one of the maintainers and we'll send you an invite!
