Learning open source, together

Patchwork is a hands-on workshop for learning Git and GitHub. We’d love for you to join us. There will be snacks for fortified hackin’, lots to learn, and new friends to be made.

Forks you don’t eat with? Branches not made of wood?

Attendees will leave with a merged pull request, a square on your contributions graph, and confidence to get more involved in the exciting world of open source.

Let’s do this

Are you ready to show the open source community what you’ve got? Myself, @muan, @andrew, @lildude, @shiftkey, @tobiasahlin, other GitHub staff and community mentors will be on hand to answer your questions.

No coding experience required!

  • Want to learn Git and Github? RSVP as an attendee.
  • Want to help guide future open source maintainers and contributors? RSVP as a mentor.
