• What We'll Do
Come to Community Action Night if you’re looking to join a project, pitch a project, or learn more about what civic hacking is and how you can help lead and contribute to the civic tech movement in Austin, TX. Here we work on projects together. We'll have a special guest speaker this night! Join us to get a chance to learn about code.gov from Joseph Castle, Tehcnical Director of Code.Gov
Code.gov Description
White House. Pentagon. NSA. They all began releasing more code last year following the first-ever Federal Source Code Policy. And now it’s easier than ever to access it. With thousands of projects to explore, Code.gov is transforming into the nation’s primary platform for sharing & improving government software. We’ll highlight the coolest projects & teach you how to give back to the country one pull request at a time. This is your code. Use it to spark America’s next breakthrough in innovation.
For this event, we are partnering with the Austin Innovation Office to collect feedback and ideas for the Open Government Partnership commitments for 2018.
