Hello, World
This
is officially the first post! How exciting!We all have spent a vast number of minutes, hours, years, etc. researching various topics in search of a solution to whatever problem we had come across at any given time.
We may find a solution and complete the project, and update its documentation; other times, we may jot down a note and store it some place safe (where did I place my notepad again…), or we may simply forget it and move onto whatever else needing attention. I am guilty of the latter, the latter latter, and on occation, the latter latter latter.
Prompt Fu provides a simple interface, the Markdown lanugage, to share my thoughts and work, and it is OPEN.
Given that open source has been such a huge catalyst in the world of technology and vastly helpul thorughout my career; Prompt Fu offers, for starters, my notes, blogs, wikis, projects, etc. as I continually develop throughout my career and life.
As I, and maybe someday others, share, the opportunity for you to contribute and share your thoughts is available and encouraged! Each blog and wiki should have a comments section found at the bottom of the page. Please, feel free to comment suggesting edits, start discussions, or to let me know the post helped you in your search.
Additionally, wiki posts have an ”improve this post” link which will take you directly to GitHub so you can fork, edit, and pull request to contribute.
With that said, more interesting posts are coming so be sure to check back soon; also be sure to check out the various wikis that include tech tips and command line fu that I have found useful in my everyday - Wiki.
