I am considering open source as good place to learn and to generate some value for people. I do love sinatra framework. I pull source and read diffs every couple days. But they have core team which fixes all bugs in seconds, so I cannot find application there. And my goal is more to make some contacts and to know people in this field. I always was a silent reader and now I want to communicate with intresting people.
- bad_user 16y agoVladimir, open source contributions tend to suck unless you're scratching an itch for yourself. You don't contribute for the sake of contributing, that's not going to work. That's why you shouldn't work on Sinatra and other open source tools meant for developers. Instead, build an app for a much wider audience. Do what an entrepreneur trying to sell his app would do, but with open-source - i.e. the end goal being to have real users that appreciate your work. Here's the perfect example: https://github.com/michaeldv/fat_free_crm https://github.com/michaeldv/fat_free_crm
