• you will work on preselected JavaScript projects. We will share a task list at the beginning of the event.
• we will form teams of up to 3 people per project. This way, even if you have never made a contribution, you will not be left behind.
• a jury will select and award the best contribution.
fill in the form, it is very important that you confirm your attendance by email
you will collaborate on both large and small projects. The former because we use their code on a daily basis and the latter because they have fewer contributors, and the impact can be greater.
it is not a competition, that is why we all work as a team. We seek to bring together people who love coding as much as we do, the goal is to get to know each other and enjoy doing what we love.
library contributions are great for your portfolio, they will help you to promote yourself and knock on new doors. Do your homework with the quality it deserves and if it is your first time, you will surely want a second.
