Abstract: Want to contribute to open source projects, but not sure where to start or what tools to use?
In this 3 hour session, we'll cover:
By the end of this session, you will have hands-on experience with all of the common tools used to contribute to open source projects and will be ready to go out and contribute to your first project. We'll wrap up with resources to continue practicing and ways to find good projects and bugs for new contributors. See “Notes” above for what to bring and installation instructions. Please e-mail open-source-workshop@mit.edu with questions about the curriculum, software installation, or anything else. |
