Hack Week:
%small
Innovate, collaborate, and learn.
%p.lead
In its history, Hack Week has incubated software like the
= link_to 'openSUSE ARM port,', 'https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:ARM'
which gave life to a few SUSE products. It has also launched
projects that benefited the entire free free software ecosystem like
= link_to 'Inqlude', "https://inqlude.org/"
(a Qt library archive) and come up with solutions like
= link_to 'Jangouts', 'https://github.com/jangouts/jangouts',
the open source video conferencing tool developed by our engineers
to scratch their own itch. What are you going to add to this collection?
%h3 Innovate
%p
Use this opportunity to work on any activity of your passion. You decide
whether you contribute to an existing free software project or explore
strange new languages. You choose whether you seek out new tools and new
communities, or boldly go where no hacker has gone before! Just
= link_to 'record your ideas,', new_project_path
about what people could hack on in this tool.
%p
And be open-minded, supportive, and respectful. Hack Week is a happy and
constructive place. Support ideas you like, ignore ideas you don't like.
Help improve the ideas of others and accept help to improve the ideas of
your own. Hack Week is about discourse and open discussion. Please
approach innovation with an open mind, respect, and the desire to support your
fellow hackers!
%h3 Collaborate
%p
We encourage you to find like-minded developers and team up to multiply
your hacking power. Use the opportunity to work with people from other
teams, departments or locations. Get together in an office and make use of
all the nice things the Internet provides to collaborate remotely.
%p
Remember: we are an open company, and work transparently on free software.
Share your code on the platform of your choice, and reference it from your
project. Then let the community and the rest of the world know about what
you are doing. Blog, tweet, publish videos, shout it from the roof tops so
people can pick up your project, copy, distribute, study, change and
improve it!
%h3 Learn
%p
Hack Week is also the time to share new tricks: offer yours and pick some up
from others. Use this week to expand your horizon and maybe even crack the
books. Acquire new information, reinforce what you know, adapt your
behavior and expand your skills!
