About
This will be the most basic overview of the project. Ideally should only be a few sentences but may require more detail to properly explain each project. It can also list the activity status of the project.
How does this project fit in with the strategy?
This section elaborates more on the project’s goals relating to how they align with OpenMRS’ goals.
Background
This is an optional section that can include important context or prerequisites needed to either understand the scope of the project, or any necessary tools/skills needed to help with tasks.
How to Join
This will provide links and schedules for new users interested in joining the team. It should provide the recommended communication platforms, as well as the team’s meeting schedule.
Useful Tools and Tips
Somewhat similar to Background but can be oriented towards auxiliary content or miscellaneous tutorials.
Meet the Team
Finally, team information. This will include the project’s leaders, or any other noteworthy team members. This info should be conveyed with the same template (I’m partial to the table on the FHIR page).
