7 reasons I love open source
|
||||
======
|
||||
Being a part of the open source community is a huge win for many reasons.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Here's why I spend so much of my time—including evenings and weekends—[on GitHub][1], as an active member of the open source community.
|
||||
|
||||
I’ve worked on everything from solo projects to small collaborative group efforts to projects with hundreds of contributors. With each project, I’ve learned something new.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
* **It keeps my skills fresh.** As someone in a management position at a consultancy, I sometimes feel like I am becoming more and more distant from the physical process of creating software. Working on open source projects allows me to get back to what I love best: writing code. It also allows me to experiment with new technologies, learn new techniques and languages—and keep up with the cool kids!
|
||||
* **It teaches me about people.** Working on an open source project with a group of people you’ve never met teaches you a lot about how to interact with people. You quickly discover that everyone has their own pressures, their own commitments, and differing timescales. Learning how to work collaboratively with a group of strangers is a great life skill.
|
||||
* **It makes me a better communicator.** Maintainers of open source projects have a limited amount of time. You quickly learn that to successfully contribute, you must be able to communicate clearly and concisely what you are changing, adding, or fixing, and most importantly, why you are doing it.
|
||||
* **It makes me a better developer**. There is nothing quite like having hundreds—or thousands—of other developers depend on your code. It motivates you to pay a lot more attention to software design, testing, and documentation.
|
||||
* **It makes my own creations better**. Possibly the most powerful concept behind open source is that it allows you to harness a global network of creative, intelligent, and knowledgeable individuals. I know I have my limits, and I don’t know everything, but engaging with the open source community helps me improve my creations.
|
||||
* **It teaches me the value of small things**. If the documentation for a project is unclear or incomplete, I don’t hesitate to make it better. One small update or fix might save a developer only a few minutes, but multiplied across all the users, your one small change can have a significant impact.
|
||||
* **It makes me better at marketing**. Ok, this is an odd one. There are so many great open source projects out there that it can feel like a struggle to get noticed. Working in open source has taught me a lot about the value of marketing your creations. This isn’t about spin or creating a flashy website. It is about clearly communicating what you have created, how it is used, and the benefits it brings.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
That said, here are seven reasons why I contribute to open source:
|
||||
|
||||
I could go on about how open source helps you build partnerships, connections, and friends, but you get the idea. There are a great many reasons why I thoroughly enjoy being part of the open source community.
|
||||
|
||||
You might be wondering how all this applies to the IT strategy for large financial services organizations. Simple: Who wouldn’t want a team of developers who are great at communicating and working with people, have cutting-edge skills, and are able to market their creations?

我爱开源的7个理由
|
||||
======
|
||||
成为开源社区的一员绝对是一个明智之举,原因有很多。
|
||||
![](https://opensource.com/sites/default/files/styles/image-full-size/public/lead-images/BUSINESS_lovework.png?itok=gmj9tqiG)
|
||||
|
||||
这就是我为什么包括晚上和周末在内花费非常多的时间,成为开源社区的一个活跃成员。
|
||||
|
||||
![](https://opensource.com/sites/default/files/uploads/open_source_contributions.gif)
|
||||
|
||||
* **它让我的技能与时俱进。** 在咨询公司的管理职位工作,有时我觉得自己与创建软件的实际过程越来越远。参与开源项目使我可以重新回到我最热爱的编程之中。也使我能够体验新技术,学习新技术和语言,并且使我不被酷酷的孩子们落下。
|
||||
* **它教我关于人们的生活。** 与一群素未谋面的人合作开源项目在与人交往方面能够教会你很多。你很快会发现每个人有他们自己的压力,他们自己的义务,以及不同的时间表。学习如何与一群陌生人合作是一种很好的生活技能。
|
||||
* **它使我成为一个更好的沟通者。** 开源项目的维护者有有限的时间。你很快就知道,要成功地贡献,你必须能够清楚、简明地表达你所做的改变、添加或修复,最重要的是,你为什么要这么做。
|
||||
* **它使我成为一个更好的开发者。** 没有什么能像数以千计的其他开发者依赖你的代码一样。它敦促你更加专注软件设计、测试和文档。
|
||||
* **它使我自己的创作变得更好。** 开源背后最强大的观念可能是它允许你驾驭一个由有创造力、有智慧、有知识的个人组成的全球网络。我知道我自己一个人的能力是有限的,我不可能什么都知道,但与开源社区的合作有助于我改进我的创作。
|
||||
* **它告诉我小事物的价值。** 如果一个项目的文档不清楚或不完整,我会毫不犹豫地把它做得更好。一个小小的更新或修复可能只节省开发人员几分钟的时间,但是随着用户数量的增加,您一个小小的更改可能产生巨大的价值。
|
||||
* **它使我更好的营销。** 好的,这是一个奇怪的例子。有这么多伟大的开源 项目在那里,感觉像一场被关注奋斗。在开源工作让我学到了很多营销的价值。这不是关于讲述或创建一个华丽的网站。而是关于清楚地传达你所创造的,它是如何使用的,以及它带来的好处。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
也就是说,这里有七个原因让我为开源做出贡献:
|
||||
我可以继续讨论开源是如何帮助你建立伙伴关系、关系和朋友的,不过你都明白了。我非常喜欢成为开源社区的一员的原因有很多。
|
||||
|
||||
你可能想知道这些如何用于大型金融服务机构的IT战略。简单来说:谁不想要一个擅长与人交流和工作,具有尖端的技能,并能够推销他们的创作的开发团队呢?
