Open source is a key part of modern software development, but getting started can be tough for beginners. Many developers are discouraged by complex codebases, steep learning curves, and unfamiliar project structures.

Tublian is helping developers to overcome these challenges by leveraging AI to support new contributors.

Goal

We want to empower developers by integrating AI into their workflow. With Tublian’s AI Developer Agent, new contributors can tackle open-source projects with confidence, focusing more on solving real problems and less on figuring out difficult code or structures.

Program Overview

We’ve designed a 4-week program to guide developers through open-source contributions with the help of AI. Here’s how it works:

Week 1: Learn Open Source

• Understand the basics of open source and why it’s important.
• Learn how to use Git and GitHub, and make your first Pull Request.

Week 2: Pick Your Community

• Explore different open-source projects and their communities.
• Choose a project that fits your interests and start contributing by improving documentation.

Week 3: Become a Helper

• Discover the role of maintainers and how they manage projects.
• Begin triaging issues and working on “good first issues.”

Week 4: Make Code Contributions

• Get familiar with a new codebase.
• Start making meaningful contributions to the code of your chosen project.

Your progress will be tracked, ensuring that you make at least one merged contribution per week. Along the way, you’ll receive feedback, and attend live mentorship sessions.

Our program is suitable for developers of all skill levels and will begin on October 1st, 2024.
