Python Open Source Sprints [In-Person]

## What are Python Open Source Sprints?

Open source software, including Python and most Python libraries, is developed as a joint effort of thousands of programmers. Programmers like you spend time contributing to documentation, tests, bug fixes, and new features. It's a wonderful opportunity for you to contribute in a guided way to the Python library you use.

## Can I participate if I have never contributed to open source?

Sure. Anyone with some Python knowledge is welcome to participate. PyLadies Amsterdam and Picnic mentors will guide you through.
