2022 GHC Open Source Day will take place virtually on September 16th 2022 from 8am to 3pm US Pacific Time.
Open Source Day (OSD) is an all-day hackathon (including workshops) at Grace Hopper Celebration in which participants of all skill levels learn about open source while contributing to projects designed to solve real-world problems. With the support of project maintainers, experienced mentors, and expert speakers, OSD attendees are on the fast track to becoming open source contributors.
During OSD, participants can join a project on the Contribution Track and/or attend one or more workshops from the Learning track.
Contribution Track (Projects)
On the Contribution Track, participants will contribute code to our partner open source software (OSS) projects. Participants can choose to work solo or in groups on an issue and have opportunities to meet project maintainers and experienced mentors who will be available throughout the day to help them make their OSS contribution. Additionally, as part of the contribution track, we have a “Choose your own adventure” option, where participants have the opportunity to contribute code to projects led by women maintainers or to any project in the OSS community with mentors available to help!
Learning Track (Workshops)
On the Learning Track, participants can attend hands-on workshops to help them overcome the barriers to making open source contributions. Participants will have a chance to attend technical and non-technical workshops and walk away with skills they can leverage in open source contributions.
