ABSTRACT
Contributing to open source projects can be a fulfilling and rewarding activity. Among the benefits of contributing to open source projects are learning valuable skills, improving a library you depend on, and building a professional network. However, if you haven’t contributed to open source projects before, getting started can feel scary and overwhelming. Luckily, there are many resources out there that help you with making contributions to open source projects and finding the right project for you. In this presentation Dr Maren Westermann will talk about how to get started with contributing to open source projects, the different ways of getting involved, and about finding a project that matches your interests.
