The repository https://github.com/NLeSC/template contains the template for software projects at the Netherlands eScience Center. In principle, it follows the general recommendations from https://fair-software.nl for developing research software, while adding details that are specific to the Netherlands eScience Center.

When starting a new project, look for GitHub's prompt to use the template as a starting point.

The template comes with the 5 recommendations from fair-software.nl predefined as GitHub issues. You'll see them as soon as you click New issue. For each one, click Get started to instantiate the issue from the issue template.

Once you have the 5 recommendations as issues in your issue list, feel free to delete
