I think one of the strategies shall be targeting new comers to "Web Hacking" and beginners. I am not VERY advanced user of ZAP, but i love it and found it much easier than Burp and also it is open source and free. So I can think of the followings ideas:

1- Author a new book similar to web applications hacker's handbook with online hands on exercises based on ZAP. or detailed write-ups for juice shop or DVWA based on ZAP

2- create web hacking youtube videos, or something similar to   https://portswigger.net/web-security

A complete alternative to the web application hackers handbook would be a huge undertaking :/
However we might get to something close to that by building up a set of tutorials around each topic.
And I'm definitely in favour of more videos! They take me way too long to record, but I'd be delighted if someone else would like to record some :D

Agree that's not easy, i thought before to create my own write-ups for Web Applications Hacker's Handbook based on ZAP and share. But i dunno if that is politically correct to share via ZAP official documentation :) 

there are couple of good videos on youtube but yes definitely we need more! we may agree on the video topic and scripts then it will be easier to find someone to make the videos. I have no previous exp with creating videos but i can try :)
