Alvaro Hernández (Open Source Tech Consultant, Developer) completed his 19th week as a member of the team. This week Alvaro continued developing the “Best Small and Large-scale Community Clothing Recycling, Reuse, and Repurposing Options” tutorial. He continued adding content to the page and also worked on writing software tools for replacing rules to identify small but time-consuming website code addition tasks like adding a line break before every header. This was done with “visual studio code” and a find-and-replace plugin that uses regex code to write down each replacement rule.
