[📑 Docs]: New style guide - About this guide

[thulieblack]

What Dev Docs changes are you proposing?

Let's finally get around to creating, designing, and incorporating an AsyncAPI Style Guide!

Why the need?

In tech jobs, we often focus on our technology's technical aspects, such as functionality and performance. However, the documentation for our technology is equally important to the code itself. A style guide ensures consistency and clarity, establishes a consistent voice and tone in your documentation, makes it easier for multiple writers to work together on a single doc, and helps ensure documentation is accurate and up-to-date. When all of your technical writers follow the same guidelines, it's easier for readers to find the information they need and understand how to use your product or OSS technology.

What section of the AsyncAPI Style Guide is this issue for?

• About this guide: welcome docs contributors, detail your needs, and mention goals for your documentation.

Where should this go?

Let's create a new .md file for only the About this guide section of the new AsyncAPI Style Guide.

Create the following directory and place your file there: asyncapi.com/docs/community/styleguide/aboutguide.md.
