Just like the favourite open source projects you admire, you too can start your open source project with the aim of solving real-life problems or something that interests you.
In my experience with open source, I realized that so many people find it challenging to start their projects. While there are some theoretical resources out there, you rarely find practical guidance.
In this workshop, I will not only show but also guide you through creating your first open-source project. Here's a quick overview of what will be covered:
- What an Open Source Project is.
- How to create a project on GitHub
- Setting up your repository (Licenses, Readme, Contributing guide, etc.)
- How to establish branding for your project
- Best marketing practices for your project
