Welcome to the Developer Announcements subcategory! This space is dedicated to keeping our community informed about all technical updates and changes. Here’s what you need to know about this subcategory:
Why should people use this subcategory? What is it for?
The Developer Announcements subcategory is designed to provide our community with crucial updates and information related to the development and maintenance of our forum, website, Discord bot, and backend/API. It’s the go-to place for understanding the technical advancements and changes that impact our community’s digital infrastructure.
How exactly is this different than the other categories we already have?
While the broader Information and Announcements category covers all kinds of updates and news, the Developer Announcements subcategory is specifically focused on technical and development-related communications. This ensures that all developer-related information is consolidated in one place, making it easier for those interested in the technical side of our community to stay updated.
What should topics in this subcategory generally contain?
Topics in this subcategory should include:
- Forum Updates: Information about new features, bug fixes, and changes to the forum.
- Website Changes: Announcements regarding updates, maintenance, and new functionalities of our website.
- Discord Bot Updates: News about changes, enhancements, and new features of our Discord bot.
- Backend/API Changes: Detailed information about updates and modifications to our backend systems and APIs.
- Maintenance Notifications: Scheduled maintenance announcements and downtime notifications.
Do we need this subcategory? Can we merge with another category, or subcategory?
This subcategory is essential for maintaining clear and organized communication about our technical updates. It provides a dedicated space for developers and technically-inclined community members to find and discuss important changes. Merging it with another category could result in critical technical information being overlooked. Therefore, maintaining a distinct Developer Announcements subcategory ensures that all technical updates are easily accessible and well-organized.
