Create a Contributor Guide for New GSoC Participants #849

Description

@DarhkVoyd

Description:
With the new season of GSoC approaching, many contributors are joining our community. Currently, there is no guide to help them understand our project structure or how they can contribute effectively. This leads to most new contributors focusing solely on the specification website, often overlooking ecosystem tools like validators, benchmarks etc, which provide impactful opportunities for contributions.

Proposal:
Create a guide that:

  1. Explains the role of the JSON Schema specification community.
  2. Introduces contributors to the spec website and its purpose.
  3. Highlights key ecosystem tools (e.g., Bowtie, HyperJump Validator) and their relevance to the community.
  4. Provides guidance on how contributors can get involved in both the spec and ecosystem tools.

This guide will help direct contributors to areas where their efforts can make a significant difference, distributing traffic more effectively across the community's projects.
