One way to encourage the open source community

From the conclusion, it is to put a star on projects at GitHub. I'm very happy someone putting a star on my project. So if you already put a star on any projects, it encourage the open source community. But have you put a star on projects developed as oss used in your project? All of them? This talk proposes a solution that activates open source community by putting a star on projects which you depend.

    other OSS !

    View Slide

28. But Bundle-star is just one
    way to encourage the OSS
    community
    

    View Slide

29. ! The really important
    point is that we notice
    various OSS projects and
    try to know more about
    them
    

    View Slide

30. In doing so we can get new
    knowledge and contribute
    to those projects. We can
    encourage the OSS
    community more if we do
    those things.
