Hi Vasek,

thanks for setting up the demo module on GitHub!

To demonstrate how module authors can get credit by scientific citation, some 
kind of reference/howto describing how the integration of the GitHub project 
and the Zenodo data repositiory (https://www.zenodo.org/) can be achieved, as 
explained here: 
https://www.zenodo.org/login/?next=%2Faccount%2Fsettings%2Fgithub%2F  
https://guides.github.com/activities/citable-code/
By doing so, a persistent identifier (DOI) is assigned to the GRASS module 
codebase. Zenodo also offers a handy tool to provide citation strings for the 
modulde code in hundreds of citation styles.

Best regards,
Peter

> Dear users and contributors,
>
> I've created an example project (repository) on GitHub. It is a GRASS GIS 
> module written in Python which simply adds two raster maps together. It uses 
> GitHub Actions to build the module and publish its documentation as a website 
> (using GitHub Pages).
>
> https://github.com/wenzeslaus/r.example.plus
>
> This is based on my earlier work on an example project on GitLab [1] and 
> includes several improvements and changes:
>
> * There is a test suite included with couple of test functions.
> * It uses Black for code formatting (assuming author runs it manually).
> * Repository is marked as a template (see the big "Use this template" button).
> * GitHub Actions are used for:
>   * compiling the module and running tests,
>   * checking code quality with Flake8 and Pylint, and
>   * checking code style with Black.
> * GitHub Actions are now used for publishing documentation (done by GitLab CI 
> before).
> * Option names now follow GRASS GIS standards more.
> * More documentation in the code and on how to use the code.
> * Badges are now in the README file (GitLab had those as project properties).
>
> Otherwise, I hope the project should describe itself and if something is 
> missing or is not documented enough, please open an issue or a pull request.

> Best,

> PS: We can discuss on grass-dev if this should go under some organization and 
> how to improve the "what's next" part [2].
