Standardize English dialect usage for ReactiveUI
Summary
While working on the ReactiveUI Website, an issue was pointed out about the spelling of a word reactiveui/website#90. This started a conversation that I am sure has happened in the developer community for years. What are is the correct spellings of words across the English Dialects.
Motivation
When dealing with a globally distributed project, and english is not everyones first language, this becomes a challenge. For native English speakers it is challenge enough to spell certain words correctly. Add dialect into the mix and English becomes more confusing, as english is a vary colourful language. I believe that standardizing our publicly facing content will go a long way in helping consumption of documentation and communications.
Discussion
I would like the @reactiveui/core-team and @reactiveui/learning-team to come together and select an english dialect for spellings moving forward to reduce friction and consumption for non native english speakers.
Side Note
Notice in this communication I explicitly used the same word spelled different ways to point out the confusion.
