This is all the stuff we very often point new contributors to over the
first days and weeks of their involvement with Bisq. The motivation of
writing this doc is to have a single link we can provide to future new
contributors, such that they can ramp up autonomously and at their own
pace, making everyone involved more productive.

There's a lot we can do to make this doc more friendly, less dense, etc.
It's a first cut; a "something is better than nothing" best effort to
get the ball rolling.

I've just requested a few reviews. Even one or two should do. Can be quick. Mainly want to make sure others are aware of this and don't see anything glaring that they'd change. Preview is at https://deploy-preview-39--bisq-docs.netlify.com/.

Very thorough! Still a new contributor myself, so my one suggestion is more about style than substance.

The list is long. Maybe break it up into chunks to make it more approachable?

To me, seems like primary themes are:

  • "say hello & get started" (bullets 1-7)
  • "how we work" (bullets 8-12)
  • "get connected" (the rest)

Good call, @m52go. See my latest commit and the deploy preview link above (expand the "Checks" section).
