At ZAM, we use a lot of open-source software – and we also develop our own. We want to advance our own projects and actively contribute to the open-source community.
Are you interested in open-source development? Do you enjoy writing software with real impact? Then you've come to the right place.
We're not a programming course – questions are welcome, and learning new things together is encouraged, but we currently lack the capacity to teach the fundamentals.
Schedule:
Introductions & Short Presentations
– What would you like to work on today?
– If you would like to contribute something (project, step, etc.), please arrive a little early.
– Max. 5 minutes per presentation.
Working & Sharing Phase
– Working: focused work, alone or in small groups.
– Sharing: discussions & active exchange.
– Separate areas to ensure both work and sharing functions effectively.
Dinner (around 8 p.m.)
– Pizza/food delivery (at cost).
On-site amenities include:
Drinks (at cost)
Internet access
Friendly and knowledgeable people
👉 Companies that would like to contribute (e.g., by providing pizza and drinks) are very welcome: come along, see for yourself, and talk to Julian.
