I ❤ OSS

Are you curious about how to get involved in an open source project but don’t know where to start? Come hear from Microsoft OSS maintainers directly about working on and maintaining their projects!

Maintainers will discuss their project, how they manage it, common issues that arise, and contribution opportunities. Additionally, learn about best practices for using and contributing to open source software on GitHub, and how to find the right first issues and projects to get involved with!

After hearing about how open source works, and doing a deep dive into some projects, get started on making your own contributions! You should bring a laptop so that you can get in on the action.
