Inside Microsoft Learn: Mastering the Open-Source Contribution Workflow
Did you know that Microsoft Learn is one of the largest open-source projects in the world? In this session, you will learn how the Skilling teams at Microsoft manage thousands of articles daily—and how you can join them.
We will demystify the "Docs-as-Code" approach, guiding you through the exact workflow used by internal teams to write, edit, and publish content. You will learn how to:
- Navigate the Repos: Locate the right files within the massive Microsoft Learn GitHub repositories.
- Master the Tools: Use the Learn Markdown extensions to format content and add interactive features like a pro.
- Flow with GitHub: Create issues, submit Pull Requests (PRs), and communicate effectively with Microsoft maintainers.
- Apply the Style: Tips and tricks for writing engaging, accessible content that adheres to Microsoft's style guide.
Whether you want to fix a typo or author a new article, this session will give you the confidence to click "Edit" and make your mark on the learning community.
