There are many ways you can contribute to ASF projects, and code is only one of them. Community or developer relations, events, working groups, marketing, etc. ASF projects take a lot of dedicated volunteer efforts beyond code contributions. How did you start contributing to ASF projects? Share your story and help inspire others to contribute to open source development. We want to showcase ALL the work and the people behind it. https://bit.ly/3seZbu6 #firstASFcontribution #opensource

Open source projects need healthy communities to thrive. The ASF provides projects with services and mentorship for building resilient and durable communities throughout their lifecycle. New projects start in the Apache Incubator and graduate once they’ve met certain criteria (and if it’s no longer maintained, it goes into the Attic). Learn more about how ASF helps build communities that endure: https://bit.ly/3Uin6TA #opensource #ASF25Years

[Watch] ASF's Rich Bowen talks with Ivet Petrova Madzharova, marketing lead for Apache Cloustack, at Community Over Code Europe 2024 about getting involved in so-called "non-technical" roles in open source projects. This conversation is a great reminder that, no matter what your skills are, they are desperately needed by open source projects. https://lnkd.in/gSJ84Bsx #opensource

Code is only one of the ways to contribute to open source projects -- community or developer relations, events, working groups, marketing, and so much more.
