Any contributor is the most welcomed! 

  1. Introduction: Contact Thibaud ([email protected] or on Discord). He'll help you to publish the article from A to Z.
  2. Writing: Start writing a draft with the tool of your choice (Google Docs works nicely). A draft is a draft: don't worry if the article doesn't seem good yet.
  3. Review: Thibaud will comment on the draft and suggest some changes to help the reading. You'll work in collaboration until the article reaches a state that satisfies both of you.
  4. Finalization: Thibaud takes care of the formatting in WordPress. The article is also sent to a professional proofreader, whoever the author.
  5. Publishing: The default rate of publication on the blog is every 2 weeks. An email is sent to all CodinGamers the day the article is published.
