Medical-Website Project Code of Conduct

Welcome

Welcome to the Medical-Website repository! This project is dedicated to helping beginners contribute to open source, especially during gssoc24. We welcome all pull requests in Python and Java, prioritize genuine contributions, and encourage good first issues. Our community is committed to fostering a respectful, inclusive, and harassment-free environment for all participants, whether they're new to open source or seasoned contributors. Let's work together to create a positive experience for all contributors during gssoc24.

Our Pledge

We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in Medical-Website a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.

We pledge to act in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming, diverse, inclusive, and healthy community. Everyone is encouraged to contribute and collaborate in a safe and supportive environment, while also learning the value of open-source contributions.

Our Standards

To ensure a positive experience for everyone involved in Medical-Website, all members must adhere to the following standards:

Positive Behavior:

  • Respect for New Contributors: Welcome beginners with patience and encouragement as they make their first open-source contributions.
  • Constructive Feedback: Offer feedback that is aimed at helping others improve and learn, rather than discouraging them.
  • Collaboration: Be willing to work together and provide assistance to those who are new to Git, GitHub, and open-source development.
  • Inclusivity: Ensure that discussions, pull requests, and comments are inclusive and make all participants feel welcome, regardless of experience.
  • Recognition: Acknowledge and celebrate the efforts and contributions of all members, especially newcomers who are participating in gssoc24 for the first time.
  • Respect for gssoc24 Values: Follow the gssoc24 guidelines, emphasizing genuine contributions and discouraging low-quality or spammy pull requests.

Unacceptable Behavior:

  • Harassment: Any form of harassment, including derogatory comments, trolling, or personal attacks.
  • Discrimination: Discriminatory remarks or behavior based on personal identity, beliefs, or background.
  • Low-Quality Contributions: Deliberately making low-quality or spam pull requests to game the gssoc24 system. Contributions should add real value to the project.
  • Disrespectful Behavior: Insults, inflammatory comments, or dismissive behavior towards other contributors, especially beginners.
  • Privacy Violations: Sharing others’ private information without their consent.
  • Disruption: Behavior that undermines the spirit of gssoc24 and disrupts the positive learning environment we strive to create.

Project Goals

The Medical-Website project aims to provide an accessible platform where beginners can make meaningful contributions to open source, particularly during gssoc24. The key goals include:

  • Welcoming Pull Requests: We welcome contributions in Python and Java, focusing on providing genuine value to the repository and encouraging good first issues.
  • Guiding Beginners: This project helps new contributors learn the basics of Git, GitHub, and open-source collaboration. We are committed to guiding them throughout the gssoc24 experience.
  • Promoting Ethical Participation: We promote the core values of gssoc24 by prioritizing genuine, well-thought-out contributions and discouraging spammy or low-effort pull requests.
