You're very welcome! You did a great job with the learncodefrom.us/ site as well, I'm looking forward to seeing it grow. Are you focusing mainly on newer voices or also well-established ones too? Because there's lots of female developers I follow I'd recommend for it - Laura Kalbag, Sara Soueidan, Rachel Andrews, and Lea Verou to name a few. Jen Simmons is an especially intelligent figure whose done many talks related to CSS, and often writes/tweets about the obstacles facing women in tech.
Thank you so much. Definitely looking for more established voices as well, my plan was to see what organically happens today and tomorrow, and then reach out to those bigger more established people later this week to see if they want to be included!
If I could make a suggestion, Tearyne (pronounced like Karen with a T) is a black female dev from Texas that's been starting to establish her own voice and has spoken about diversity and web development, and a really good online-friend of mine from a front-end development slack channel. Definitely reach out to her about being included, I think she'd make a great addition. See her twitter here -> twitter.com/TearyneG
Thank you so much!!! Going to definitely add this in and share it. Awesome article.

Awesome! Will do, thanks!
If that's reality then it's quite sad that someone's knowledge might be less valuable or even rejected to someone just due to looks...
