Hi Tesselators!

It's been a few weeks since the last This Week in Tessel, our apologies! We've been hard at work on the Tessel repos, building and growing the project.

Get excited

We've already built most of our Tessel Start experience for the Tessel 2 - give yourself a tour! We've also released a set of preliminary Tessel 2 docs to tessel.io/docs.

Get involved

We're also excited to have finished open sourcing literally all of our repos, including (at long last) our website, tessel.io. Now, if you find something broken there you can file an issue or PR instead of reporting over Twitter.

Interested in helping build Tessel 2? Two links for you:

1. Tessel's Slack so you can ask us questions and get help getting started
2. The "Hardware Not Required" tag on our T2-CLI repo where you can build functionality and get familiar with Tessel before your Tessel 2 ships

Welcome to the team

Just taking a quick moment to call attention to all the people who have joined our growing volunteer contributor team. We're happy to have you!

With love,

The Tessel Project

Should we mention tessel/project#106 ? @johnnyman727

[johnnyman727]

I'd prefer some discussion on that issue first.

@Frijol maybe it would be reasonable to divide the github avatars by new team members since last 'this week in Tessel' ?
This will show to the public there really are new members. At the moment the outside point of view feels a little bit silent.
And only showing the avatars will prevent you to call my name 😆

@Student007 I thought about dividing it out, but I don't want to accidentally leave anyone out/not sure who we've introduced and who we haven't! Maybe that should be everyone since https://tessel.io/blog/121734541002/welcoming-three-new-team-members ?

I think it's been pretty silent from the outside point of view since we haven't sent this "weekly-ish" update since August..

Moved to #13 so line edits and stuff are easier
