Free & Open Source Day

Description : All Open Source enthusiasts from Hyderabad, beginners as well as advanced, come down together to contribute to open source projects. We finalize the projects before hand, based on which projects the mentors from our developer ecosystem actively contribute to. Attendees form groups around each project, and the mentor guides them in-person on contributing to the respective project.

Beginners get a free introduction to Git and GitHub
