About us
Welcome to the First Time Open Source Code Club. If you have been interested in contributing to open source projects but feel intimidated by the process, the documentation, or the technical barriers, this is the place for you. We are a community of beginners helping each other navigate our first pull requests, understand project workflows, and get comfortable with collaborating on shared codebases in a supportive, low-pressure environment.
Our meetings are focused on breaking down the mystery of open source by working through small, manageable tasks together. Whether you are still learning a specific language or just want to understand how to navigate a repository on platforms like GitHub, you are welcome here. We believe that everyone has something to contribute, and our goal is to help you build the confidence you need to start making your mark on the projects you care about.
