Hi would it be possible for you to make a video walking through the process of making a contribution to an open source project? I am a bit lost at the moment.

[@Scott_Stern]

Yep. But email me in the about section of the channel so I can get you going

[@TheKyle1223]

Great video! How much knowledge do I need before I can effectively contribute to open source?

[@Scott_Stern]

@@TheKyle1223 awesome question. Anyone can start at any level. The difficulty will be either on the ticket you pick or if you’re brand new getting your environment set up to contribute

[@duefeful]

Awesome vid!! Super applicable knowledge

You should be sponsored by GitLab by now lol. Do you recommend to contribute if in UK or is there alternative?

[@Scott_Stern]

lol I’ll ask them. But it’s the best tool for what we’re trying to do. Don’t matter where you are in the world for any open source project. Get to it :)

[@sul-dev]

@@Scott_Stern Yessir

[@MC-tl5yq]

Post your resume.

[@Scott_Stern]

You can see it on my LinkedIn on my profile. Or do you want a template for yourself

[@CodeWithAnk]

Thanks for sharing this informative video🫡

[@Scott_Stern]

Thanks for watching. What else would you like to see?

[@CodeWithAnk]

@@Scott_Stern It would be helpful if you could create a video demonstrating how to contribute to open-source projects, especially on large codebases.

[@Scott_Stern]

@@CodeWithAnk it’s on my list. I’ll prioritize it

[@saiphaneeshk.h.5482]

@Scott_Stern it would really help as lot of huge open source projects have certain rules or template to follow.

[@Scott_Stern]

@@saiphaneeshk.h.5482I won’t be able to go through every open source projects rules. Each one is unique. Start with their documentation. If something is not clear or you’re stuck they usually have a chat room or message the main contributors. On the good projects they are responsive and willing to help. If not. Find a new project. ❤❤❤
