As a part of the Open Source Development course that I'm taking, this week I needed to make some contributions to someone else's repo. As I was looking through some projects about CLI for Static Site Generator, Dustin's repo immediately caught my attention. The code is also written in Javascript but Dustin used commander, which was different from me. I thought contributing to his repo would help me learn something new so I filed an issue to add a new feature to his tool.
I've been sending a lot of pull requests but this was actually my first time receiving one 😄 and Dustin was my first contributor. He also proposed to add Markdown support for my tool and to parse all the headings, bold, italics and link from markdown into the corresponding HTML tags. I scanned through the pull request and found some minor issues, including missing new feature in documentation and missing the handling of the output file name. We also had different opinions about the implementation of .txt file and .md file. However after discussion, we came to agreement and I approved his changes.
