Here's an example from the Hack for LA Website team's Developer onboarding.
The above example points to a readme that is the first thing people read when they look at the repository. The website team is in the middle of changing that, to be more project focused, and guide people to the wiki, which is more user friendly. How will you make your README.md more user friendly? Will you move the developer startup instructions into front end and back end specific guides? Will those be wiki pages?
