Welcome!

Welcome to https://www.wearedotnet.io

If you write about .NET or create .NET-related content, we are happy to have you here!

We would love to add your content. Just make sure to follow our Code of Conduct

You must add the full URL to your GitHub profile to your card, so we can assign it to the member account that used the same GitHub account for sign-up.

Two Steps

To become a creator a card and a member account is required. When your card has the GitHub URL of the account you have been using to sign-up we are going to link your account automatically to your card.

What Are Creators?

By creators, we mean enthusiasts who create content for Blogs, YouTube, Twitch, Books, and tutorial platforms (e.g. Pluralsight). The content can be free or paid.

When Do We Accept Someone's Creator Card Submission?

• You must have published at least three posts (long form content) since 2022 on any of your channels.

• There must be three content pieces in English.

• There needs to be more than tweets.

• Longer-form article on LinkedIn is good, but a self-hosted blog or one on a well-known platform like Hashnode, medium etc., is better.

• Alternatively, you contributed with another form on a platform like YouTube, Twitch, Udemy or Pluralsight. If you have some recorded talks of conferences or anywhere else, that counts too! So in the form of a recorded video or a book.

RSS or Atom Feed

• Submit an Atom or RSS URL inside your creator card that belongs to your blog.

• If you do not submit a RSS or Atom URL, we cannot consider your feed for the upcoming aggregation feature.

Content Guideline

• If you have a self-hosted blog, please ensure you have a valid HTTPS certificate.

• We host NO malicious or offensive content on the blog (including photos, swearing, etc.)

• You must add the full URL to your GitHub profile to your card, so we can assign it to the member account that used the same GitHub account for sign-up.
