Open source is awesome.
None
None
All frontend code is open source by default.
The web is open by default.
Design ( Not so open )
“Developers are more open, contribute code and discuss about bettering
each other...
“...While Designers seem secretive, ego- filled and seeking pointless exclusivity.”
The feeling is mutual. ( See, we agree on something!
)
“We’re all making software.”

Leave your comfort zone.
But what about my secret sauce?

open source projects.
If you know HTML and CSS...
Or like designing logos, identity...
Or even illustrating...
Then you can contribute to an open source project.

Misconception #3
Open source is hard.
GitHub is hell-bent on lowering the barrier to contributing to
open source projects.
