Breaking into Developement with Open Source
Submitted Jul 21, 2020
“How did you break into product/software development?”
That’s a question that a developers quickly gets used to being asked. As the role has evolved from a coding function to one of end to end development, so has the appeal.
If the in-person interest is on the rise, then the digital world is ablaze. There are an overwhelming range of Slack channels, Facebook groups, LinkedIn Groups and training courses to jump into, engage with, and learn from. Product is 🔥. Developing it even hotter.
What is surprising given this trend is how few people are taking advantage of what is possibly the most under-utilised path to practical product development experience.
Open source.
This session is for everyone and anyone who wants to get started with Open Source.
Takeaways would be:
- Getting started with Open Source
- Leveraging Communities for Career Building
- Enterprise route VS Open Source Route or both!?
- Finding Opportunities and Projects as a Developer
