Community Engagement Challenge 2020

The Open University Project is a communication network that assigns beginner coders to volunteer developers and aims to educate them in the open-source community and help them contribute to FOSS projects before they are ready.

FOSSDorm helps newcomers find open source projects based on their skill preference, then learn how to contribute to the selected project, and engage them forever by giving rewards for each contribution.

The welOSS platform analyzes every OSS project available on the major version control systems and grabs metrics such as stars, contributors, language, releases, TODOs, and many more, which can help newcomers in choosing the right project.

ProgramKitsforEveryone takes inspiration from the DIY tutorials of home computers in the 80s. A “program kit” would be delivered digitally or physically which contains all the tools needed to create a small to medium sized project.
