First Blog: Diving into the Open Source Ocean

Hey there, fellow code adventurers!

I’m Tasbi, a fourth-year Software Engineering student stepping into the open source universe. No grand fanfare here—just me, a keyboard, and a whole lot of curiosity. Think of it like rummaging through a giant attic of cool code—you never know what you’ll find, but hey, that’s part of the fun.

Why did I choose this course?

Honestly, I’m just ready for something new. The usual routine of classroom projects is fine, but it gets a bit... repetitive. Open source feels like the wild west of coding—there’s freedom, unpredictability, and the chance to work on projects that actually matter. It’s a break from the “cookie-cutter” stuff, and I’m all for it.

What’s the big deal about open source?

It’s like a big potluck dinner where everyone brings their best dish (except here, it’s code). The coolest part? You get to collaborate with people from all over, sharing code, ideas, and maybe a few tricks along the way. It’s teamwork at its best, without the office politics.

What am I hoping to accomplish?

I’m not out to conquer the world (yet), but I do want to get better at coding in the real world, contribute to some cool projects, and maybe even connect with a few like-minded developers. The goal is simple—learn, contribute, and see where it takes me.

Trending Repo: Swift Composable Architecture

While digging through GitHub, I found this little gem called swift composable Architecture “https://github.com/pointfreeco/swift-composable-architecture” It’s a framework that helps build Swift apps in a more structured way. I’m eager to dive in and figure out how it works, and who knows, maybe I’ll add a line or two of my own.

So, there you have it. Stick around as I navigate the world of open source, stumble over a few bugs, and hopefully contribute to something awesome. Let’s see where this journey takes us!
