Introduction to Open Source

Open Source refers to any software or program whose source code is made available for use or modification as users or other developers see fit. Contributing to open source is very exciting; it can be a rewarding way to learn, teach, and build experience in just about any skill you can imagine. In this talk, Bolaji will show you what open source means, the benefits, how to get started as a maintainer or contributor, how to build a community around your project, and best practices for maintainers and contributors.
