About the Web Dev Map Project
Goal of the Project: Create maps of every important knowledge area and skill set in web development.
Purpose of the Maps: Each map should list and analyze every available learning path in order to serve as a guide for new learners and existing experts alike.
How do we map a knowledge area?
We map a knowledge area by creating a badge for it and inviting people to join the badge and share their learning stories.
Each map is a badge hosted on Badge List, used according to the following mapping process:
- Create a badge for a major web development topic (For example: PHP, Javascript, Web Services)
- Recruit topic experts to share the stories of how they learned the topic along with details and links to the specific resources they used.
- Collaboratively analyze the learning stories and build maps the mentioned resources by creating topic pages in the badge.
- Use the badge to guide new learners, inviting them to share their progress as they learn.
