As an incubating project, Apache Answer is always open to communication and collaboration. We started our CommunityOverCode Asia journey from a booth last year, and this year we’re back with not just the booth, but two sessions, and one keynote.
See You in Our Sessions
Last year, Apache Answer passed the vote and entered the incubator. We’ve been receiving help from the community, including but not limited to documentations, PRs, and meetup. Time for us to give it back to the open-source world.
Follow PPMC member LinkinStar, backend engineer, to look back at our first Apache release, how we settled down, and how the community nail the challenges. Dive with Anne Zhu, marketing specialist, for a closer look at Apache Answer with practical how-tos to engage your community members. Don’t forget to join Nadia and Anne for their keynote on non-code contributions within the open-source ecosystem.
