Releasing Your First (Python) Open Source Project to the Masses!

This Hackin Cast will build somewhat on the "Intro to Git" workshop I presented at WWHF 2020, and continue the journey of taking your idea for a cool new project, and moving that forward to actually getting it out in front of the world. You will benefit from either having seen that workshop, or having done any of the many Git tutorials available online (e.g. https://try.github.io/)., We'll pick up from having just learned how to start using Git, and work through how to take that knowledge and starting your own first open source project. We'll start a new project in Python, talk through how to build that project, package it up, build some testing around it, and get it pushed up to GitHub where others in the world can start finding it and making use of it. This Hackin cast is appropriate for attendees of all levels, and no prior knowledge (other than very basic command line and git usage) will be expected.

  1. LLNL-PRES-698283 This work was performed under the auspices of the

    U.S. Department of Energy by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory under contract DE-AC52-07NA27344. Lawrence Livermore National Security, LLC Releasing Your First (Python) Open Source Project to the Masses! Wild West Hackin’ Cast 2021-01-13 Ian Lee @IanLee1521
  2. LLNL-PRES-698283 2 ▪ Part 1: Level setting — Quick primer

    on Git (see WWHF workshop for deeper dive) ▪ Part 2: Applying that to existing project — Small improvements matter! ▪ Part 3: Gitting out on your own — Starting your own project Schedule
  3. LLNL-PRES-698283 3 Can’t I just have the version in the

    name? https://www.datamation.com/news/tech-comics-version-control-1.html
  4. LLNL-PRES-698283 5 Fear of Git If that doesn't fix it,

    git.txt contains the phone number of a friend of mine who understands git. Just wait through a few minutes of 'It's really pretty simple, just think of branches as...' and eventually you'll learn the commands that will fix everything. https://xkcd.com/1597/
