Contributing to an open-source project can be scary at first but this thread is a complete guide to spotting an issue, forking an existing repository, cloning the forked repo locally, make & commit changes to the new branch,push to it back to GitHub and creating a Pull request.
I learned a new tip on how to battle Imposter syndrome, and I cannot gatekeep it.
- Create a folder named "How awesome I am"
- Screenshot every positive feedback & praises you receive
- Dump it in that folder
- Check your special folder to remind yourself how awesome you are
I’ve listened to all the amazing speakers
@oscafrica
and I am both inspired and blessed to witness this.
Today I will be speaking on the topic “Contributing to Cloud-Native Open Source Communities: A Road Map”

Hey everyone .
I just created 10+ Open Source issues in
@layer5
repositories. If you are a newbie in Open Source and you will love to make your first contribution please leave a comment 🤗
Retweet 😉
Random person: if you are not paid for contributing to open Source, why do you keep doing it.
Me:
- the experience is life changing
- the network I have built is long lasting
- Self satisfaction of being a part of something big 😌

- Be positive, but keep an open mind
- Don't put all your eggs in one basket
- Don’t feel entitled to win
- Keep building your capacity
- Network with the right people

I will soon be open for internship roles.
One things I am still learning to do this year is forgive myself
- forgive myself when I fail
- forgive myself when I feel I didn’t try enough
- even when things don’t go as planned
- I have to be kind to myself
So that in the end I will be able to try again and be better

I have a suggestion to the battery features of
@Tesla
.
After retrieving several feedbacks from folks who currently using Tesla’s, I realized a common fear for users is the battery.
I come from Nigerian where the distribution of the Tesla super chargers is limited.
I could not make it in person to
#OSSUMMIT
, but I got the opportunity to present a session VIRTUALLY on the topic:
"Open Source DEI: Transitioning from Intentions to Impact"
This topic stems from my research

My friend
@shugha_
and I went out to pick a cat at Rumuokuta in PortHarcout and on our way back, we boarded a taxi and we happened to be the only persons in the taxi aside from the driver. About 2 minutes into the drive, 2boys joined us in the taxi.
This is how the drama began.
Today's encounter made me realise that as a lady I am not safe anywhere. Prior to this day I literally step out of my door every time scared that I might be a victim of Rape, Assault, Molestation or even kidnap.
I alway found Contributing to Open source intriguing but
@layer5
community always makes the experience illuminating and fun.❤️❤️

A year ago, I asked someone what they thought about me getting into tech and the response was
“You can never be good at it, you don’t even know the basics”.
In that moment I knew I had to do this by all means. Best decision I have made in my life😊😊.
Hey friends, I am looking for more
