Great article, Edidiong Asikpo. I am sure it'll encourage many developers to contribute to open-source software.
Thank you Fazle.
Yes, the goal is to enlighten every developer about the importance of contributing to Open Source Software.
Thank you for this article. I would appreciate if you could point me to where I can start?
Hi Thomas! This guide opensource.guide/how-to-contribute should be able to help out. I will be publishing an article soon about how to apply to the Season of Docs program by Google. You can subscribe to my newsletter to get notified about it when it is published.
Absolutely amazing. Thank you! :-)
Glad you found it useful
Nice one You have really inspired me. Let me take a shot
Wow! Your journey is so inspiring, thank you for this.
Glad you found it inspiring Joy Nwaiwu. Thanks for reading.
I find it so hard to find actual pieces of software i can contribute too! :(
Have you tried googling open source software on GitHub?
Edidiong Asikpo Yeah, i've done my contributions, I ment more how do you get the confidence you are good enough for a contribution?
Daily Dev Tips For me, contributing to open source is also a process to learn. So I may not necessarily be contributing because I am good enough but because I want to learn about that project or try out something new. Yes, it can be tough but most maintainers are very supportive.
OS is indeed a catalst for growth. Thanks for inspiring me as I venture into contributing to open source projects.
