Proposal: Introduce Issue Templates

[hiroyukikumazawa]

Overview

To improve consistency and clarity in issue reporting, I propose introducing standardized issue templates for the Akash website repository. This will ensure that contributors have a structured format to report bugs, request features, or suggest improvements.

Why is this important?

1. Improved Communication: Templates provide clear guidance on the details needed for each type of issue.
2. Enhanced Collaboration: Well-structured issues help maintainers and contributors understand and address concerns faster.
3. Consistency: Standardization reduces ambiguity and increases efficiency.

Proposed Templates

1. Bug Report

   • Template to include:
     • Steps to reproduce
     • Expected behavior
     • Actual behavior
     • Environment (browser, OS, etc.)

2. Feature Request

   • Template to include:
     • Problem statement
     • Proposed solution
     • Any additional context

3. General Inquiry

   • Template to include:
     • Description of the inquiry or suggestion
     • Relevant context

This is an excellent proposal for improving issue reporting and resolution.
I fully support the introduction of standardized issue templates, as they will undoubtedly enhance communication, collaboration, and consistency in managing issues.

I would like to suggest an additional enhancement: incorporating an issue reporting page or section on the Akash website.
This page could feature structured forms aligned with the proposed templates (Bug Report, Feature Request, General Inquiry).
By doing so, contributors can submit issues directly from the website in a more user-friendly and structured manner.

This approach would:

• Improve Accessibility: Allow contributors who may not be familiar with GitHub to easily report issues.
• Enhance Readability: Provide a clear and consistent format for all submissions.
• Streamline the Process: Automatically organize and format reports, ensuring they align with the standards set by the templates.

Adding this feature would complement the templates and make issue reporting more intuitive and efficient, ultimately benefiting the Akash community.

@hiroyukikumazawa as discussed over meet, you can create templated for simple things like: bugs, text mistake etc..
