AsyncAPI docs onboarding checklist

As an open-source initiative with a global community, technical writer contributors should learn about our governance documents, documentation processes, and communication channels.

Complete in order the following onboarding tasks:

• Read the AsyncAPI Code of Conduct.
• Read the AsyncAPI Slack etiquette.
• Join the AsyncAPI Slack workspace.
• Add the AsyncAPI calendar found in the AsyncAPI events page.
• Read the list of [technical writer contributor responsibilities](../community/ 010-contribution-guidelines/technical-writer-contributor-responsibilities).
• Read and familiarize yourself with the [prerequisite knowledge topics](../community/ 010-contribution-guidelines/prerequisite-knowledge).
• Familiarize yourself with the AsyncAPI Style Guide.
• Read all docs under the following content buckets: Concepts, Tutorials, Reference. (Take the time to go through each tutorial.)
• Set up your local environment following our instructions for the [AsyncAPI git workflow](../community/ 010-contribution-guidelines/git-workflow).
• Introduce yourself in AsyncAPI Slack in the #01_introductions channel and the #13_docs channel. Ask docs-related questions in #13_docs.
• Request a good first docs issue in the #13_docs Slack channel.
• Attend OPEN docs meetings to chat with other maintainers, ask docs questions, and request help on docs blockers.
