# Create My Onboarding Plan
|
|
|
|
I'm a new team member joining ${input:team:Team or project name} and I need help creating a structured onboarding plan.
|
|
|
|
My background: ${input:background:Briefly describe your experience level - new to tech, experienced developer new to this stack, etc.}
|
|
|
|
Please create a personalized phased onboarding plan that includes the following phases.
|
|
|
|
## Phase 1 - Foundation
|
|
|
|
Environment setup with step-by-step instructions and troubleshooting tips, plus identifying the most important documentation to read first
|
|
|
|
## Phase 2 - Exploration
|
|
|
|
Codebase discovery starting with README files, running existing tests/scripts to understand workflows, and finding beginner-friendly first tasks like documentation improvements. If possible, find me specific open issues or tasks that are suitable for my background.
|
|
|
|
## Phase 3 - Integration
|
|
|
|
Learning team processes, making first contributions, and building confidence through early wins
|
|
|
|
For each phase, break down complex topics into manageable steps, recommend relevant resources, provide concrete next steps, and suggest hands-on practice over just reading theory.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## How to use this prompt file
|
|
|
|
1. Save the above content as `onboarding-plan.prompt.md` in your `.github/prompts` folder.
|
|
1. In {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %}, display the {% data variables.copilot.copilot_chat_short %} view and enter `/onboarding-plan`. Optionally, you can also specify your experience level by typing `background=experienced developer but new to stack`, for example.
