Im 100% new to coding and computer programming. What is the best route for someone like me to get into coding and open-source? Where do I start?

How do you vet dependencies that you add to your projects?

Aside from the coding, what are some of the realities of owning/contributing to open-source projects that people just getting into it might not know about?

jrhender commented 4 years ago

If there is an open-source project that you want to contribute to, what would you recommend to determine the specific areas or issues that you can best help out with?

jagonalez commented 4 years ago

Can you share any tools or resources that are available to open source projects? Similar to how Jetbrains offers free subscription to open source projects.
