    As a grade 12 student currently applying to CS, I find your videos extremely useful. I hope you can reach a larger audience base. But you got me as a fan!

      Better than 456, I guess
      But I appreciate the comment. I suppose the #1 thing you can do to help is share with friends if you enjoyed it

    How should I get started with open source???

    • @JasonGoodison
      @JasonGoodison  Před 3 lety +3

      great question. I'm really biased here cause I actually own and operate an open-source project. I have a whole video on on it even how to get your local development environment set up.

    Step 1: Make github repo
    Step 2: Give up

      Even better - just put "Work In Progress" on your resume and never start
