Open source contributing is an major part of a software developer's identity, but getting started with open source can be difficult to navigate.

Emily Stolfo, software engineer at MongoDB and adjunct professor at Columbia, joins us to talk about how developers can best contribute to open source. As the maintainer of the popular Ruby MongoDB driver, Emily knows about the other side of working on large open source projects -- how to make the maintainers' lives easier and help your contributions be accepted.

The Fullstack Academy Speaker Series brings experienced software engineers on-campus to give students relevant professional insight.
