@Coding-with-Adam

I'd like to propose that we create a formal citation.cff file for plotly.js that we can refer people to when they want to cite Plotly.
There are at least two pending actions:

  1. If we need a doi (third line from the bottom), someone with admin rights will have to create a zenodo account and upload the file. I'm happy to help if I am granted the rights.
  2. we should also see if we can write some script that can automatically update the plotly.js version (fourth line from the bottom) every time a new version comes out.
cff-version: 1.2.0
message: "If you use this software, please cite it as below."
