Rails Pathway: Provide descriptive link text (multiple assignees)

[MaoShizhong]

Links in our lessons should be sufficiently descriptive to improve accessibility. As per the layout style guide, link text should both concisely describe its purpose (or where the link will redirect a user), and must not include the words this nor here.

Guidance

• Comment on this issue to let us know you'd like to get a section assigned to you. You can also ask for a specific one.
• Please wait until you are assigned by a maintainer before starting to work on this issue to avoid multiple people working on the same lessons.
• When you have been assigned a section, please refer to the suggested link text changes spreadsheet for instructions on what changes need to be made for your assigned lesson(s).
  • For most of these, you should just be able to copy and paste the suggested text to replace the original text shown in the spreadsheet (which may be more than just the link itself). Any additional steps/clarifications will be noted by the appropriate link(s).
  • You are welcome to use a different wording from a given suggestion if you find a better one. If you do, you must ensure the link text is consistent if there are multiple instances of the same href in the same lesson.
  • Line numbers for the files should be mostly accurate. It's possible that I missed an unrelated PR for a file and some numbers are a little off, but you can always search the file for the relevant text as necessary.
  • You are not required to fix any unrelated, preexisting linting errors such as list styles/indentation. Existing linting errors may cause certain tests to fail when you open a PR. You can ignore this and a maintainer will let you know if further action is required.
• Make sure to read the general contributing guide as well as the curriculum repo contributing guide before starting your first contribution.
• Please add the following to your PR in the Issues section: Related to #28290. Since this issue is divided into sections, individual PRs should NOT INCLUDE the closes keyword next to an issue number.

[SeanAverS]

Hi @MaoShizhong

I am interested on working on this and would like be assigned the Working with External APIS section please 😄

[MaoShizhong]

Assigned!

[mathdebate09]

Hey Mao, can you assign me the section on Websockets and Action Cable && Basic Messaging App (actioncable_lesson.md) && Project: Rails Final Project && Conclusion to me?

Edit: I just went through the provided spreadsheet, though I wasn't able to find out any guide for lessons, Websockets and Action Cable, Basic Messaging App and Project: Rails Final Project, incase it's under progress/already done, you can assign me any other topics as well :)

[MaoShizhong]

@mathdebate09 They're in the Ruby on Rails sheet. Just checked it and can see them there.
Can you check again and see if they're there?

[mathdebate09]

Ah silly me 😆, I can see them, you can assign it to me

[MaoShizhong]

All good - assigned

[SumonGFC]

Can assign me any of the Ruby ones.

[MaoShizhong]

@SumonGFC I've assigned you to How This Course Will Work && Installing Ruby && Basic Data Types

[SumonGFC]

@MaoShizhong Noob question: Single commit preferred? or one commit for each lesson?

[MaoShizhong]

@MaoShizhong Noob question: Single commit preferred? or one commit for each lesson?

Ultimately, either is fine. Personally, if I was working on this myself, I'd make separate commits for each lesson because that's what feels most intuitive and maintainable to me.

[CJKbarts]

I'm interested in contributing to this. Could you please assign me to any of the ruby sections except the last 2?

[MaoShizhong]

@CJKbarts Assigned you Methods

[CJKbarts]

Thank you
I'll start working on it today

[SumonGFC]

I can do another one if it is fine for us to do more than one.

[MaoShizhong]

I can do another one if it is fine for us to do more than one.

Appreciate the enthusiasm. As with previous similar issues, to encourage wider participation, we're limiting to one per person for now. These changes aren't urgent, so we're not in a rush to get them done as soon as possible.

[TheSeagullDev]

I'm willing to take a section.

[guskirb]

I'd like to work on any of them if that's okay

[MaoShizhong]

Assigned you to APIs and Building Your Own @guskirb

[yuliana-r]

@MaoShizhong opened a PR for my sections, however it's failing the markdown lint tests - let me know if anything else is needed! Apologies for the delay.

[Victor-M-Giraldo]

I'm also open to working on any of these.

[thatsthat]

Hi, I'd like to contribute if there is any task still available

[ItsTosh]

Hi! I’d like to contribute if possible, I’m fine with any section.

[charu5673]

Hello! I'd like to contribute, if there's any sections left

[MaoShizhong]

@Victor-M-Giraldo assigned you to Project: Kittens API && Project: Flickr API && JS Bundling

@thatsthat assigned you to Turbo && Stimulus && Mailers && Project: Sending Confirmation Emails

@ItsTosh assigned you to Advanced Topics

@charu5673 sorry, just assigned the last lesson group! Do take a look round other issues though, as there might be others that need help and may be suitable for you.

[MaoShizhong]

Thank you everyone who contributed to this 🙏
