Hi, after spending about 5 years as a software engineer I have been a reading a lot of open source code every day for about 2 months now and writing a blog documenting all my research efforts.

I have written few small open source npm packages but they are not that popular.

How do you learn from open source?

Recently, I have built a documentation website that’s got web dev tutorials using Docusaurus in my free time. It has a link called “Open Source Talks”. My motivation is to speak to elitist open source devs and learn from them, document the conversation and present them in that section on my website for the world to see. I would like to know how you keep up with best practices? What productivity tools do you use? What made you build your open source tools ( story behind it)? How do you manage issues reported on your repo? Etc.,

I tried reaching out to few open source developers and maintainers but no positive response yet. But it’s okay I will keep trying.

This is my efforts to learn from open source.

If you are interested, please leave a comment or dm me. Thank you.
