We are meeting again for another Open Mozilla Night, with a special guest!

Alexandre Lissy, DeepSpeech contributor from Paris, will join us in this special Mozilla Night and talk with us about how DeepSpeech and Common Voice projects work.

We'll also share how the Italian community is getting involved in the projects.

If you've never contributed before to an open source project, this is the best way to start! We'll propose 2-3 projects on which to work, but you can propose what you prefer to other participants.

You can choose between:

• Firefox development

• browser Extensions

• Servo (parallel browser engine project)

• Rust (new systems programming language), rust-av and rav1e

• translations

• MDN

• policy and advocacy

• any other Mozilla project

If you know already what you would like to work on, we recommend you to prepare before as we might struggle a bit with Internet connection :)

Here a few suggestions for where to start:

• What can I do for Mozilla (https://whatcanidoformozilla.org/)

• Contributing to the Mozilla code base
(https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_guide/Introduction)

• Browser Extensions (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions)

• Good first Bugs (https://www.joshmatthews.net/bugsahoy/?simple=1)

• Hacking Servo (https://github.com/servo/servo/blob/master/docs/HACKING_QUICKSTART.md)

• Policy & Advocacy (https://blog.mozilla.org/netpolicy/)

• Community / Activate Mozilla (https://activate.mozilla.community/)

• MDN web docs (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/MDN/Contribute)

• Translation (https://wiki.mozilla.org/L10n)

--- CODING FOR EVERYONE ---

If you just want to join for our usual Coding for everyone, you are more than welcome!

Turn into Coders organizes Coding for everyone, a gentle introduction to coding in JavaScript or Python, open to whoever wants to learn how to program, also starting from zero.

It's not a theory lesson: we work together in pairs. Bring your laptop if you can. But if you don't have a one, don't worry. We encourage people to work in pairs and anyway we always have a couple of spares.

The group is based on cooperative learning between peers. There is always someone experienced proposing study materials or helping out. Don't expect a lesson though, we are all learning collaborating in front of a computer.

--- LINKS ---

The project is based on an idea of Founders & Coders (https://foundersandcoders.com/).

Our website is http://www.turnintocoders.com - and we have a super duper newsletter, subscribe!

Check the support material for the meetup (https://github.com/turnintocoders/codingforeveryone/blob/master/meetup-support.md).

All the recommended materials are the prerequisites for our bootcamp (http://www.turnintocoders.it/en/bootcamp.html), an intensive programme to become web developer.
