MyBatis advocacy

[Alejandro Duarte]

Hello everyone!

My name is Alejandro Duarte, and I'm a published author and Developer Relations Engineer at MariaDB (previously at Vaadin—Java framework). I'm starting this conversation because 1) I'm a huge fan of MyBatis and might even write a book about it in the future, and 2) I want to help promoting it by talking about it on social media.

First, I have to apologize. I took the liberty to create social media accounts with the handle "MyBatis". I'm more than happy to yield the handles to anyone in a better position to use them. Having said so, I do have extensive experience building communities around Open Source technologies, and I'd be honored to continue to manage these accounts as my way to give back to the project. I have started to do so and you can see it on the following profiles (follow them if you want to support this initiative):

• Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/mybatis.bsky.social
• X/Twitter: https://x.com/MyBatisJava

My objective is to continue to reach out to as many developers as possible (initially through these channels) and educate them on the benefits and features of MyBatis. For this to be successful, I have be more involved and connected with those actively working on the project, so any tips, suggestions, criticism, and opinions are more than welcome.

Hello Alejandro,

Any contribution, especially from an experienced developer is awesome! 👍️

I can't speak for the other team members, but it seems fine to me that you maintain these accounts.

Cheers,

Iwao

Thanks, Iwao. I'd be honored. If this works out, how could we get these accounts listed on the website? (assuming everybody agrees)

I submitted a PR that adds the links to the doc page.

Please let me know if you want to change anything.

Looks good! Thanks a lot.

[Iwao AVE!]

Okay. I'll give other committers a few days to comment before merging.

Please note that we update the doc when we release a new version, so it might take a while until it shows up on the actual site.

Thank you again for your contribution 👍️
