[Preview] Onboarding Version A: Less Modules, More Content

Overview

The externship work documented how the participant joined the program community and began contributing to group channels. They described the situation and task of entering the extern community, listed the actions taken to introduce themselves and join discussion channels, and recorded the start of their participation in group conversations.

What I've accomplished

I documented the onboarding process by outlining the situation and task, listing the actions I took to introduce myself and join discussion channels, and recording my initial participation in group conversations.
