Adding a new developer listing requires the creation of markdown files and then creating a pull request. Create the markdown ".md" file in the /developer_profiles folder. Files must have YAML fields at the top of the file (as documented below)
Developers are only allowed to create and edit their own profiles
Create your listing as [full-name].md inside the /developer_profiles folder. Note that the file name is required to be your full name and is required to have hyphens for spaces (and not real spaces) and all lowercase letters. See our real listings for examples.
Start the file with YAML variables. Note that the three hyphens are required and are used to enclose the YAML.
