Notebook Is A Better Readme A lot of the times newcomers to open source projects are kindly asked to contribute to readme or documentation before they can do any real work. Same thing starting a new job. Many smaller projects get their readme as an afterthought. We also tend to forget to keep readme/documentation up-to-date rendering them even more confusing. I'd been writing my project for over a year and hoping to get help, buy-in, and collaboration. Then I realized that I hadn't updated my Readme since starting out, and it was out of date, and, frankly sucked. It was not convincing, and it was the first thing that devs saw when assessing my project!
