Arunoda Susiripala — Building Storybook, Meteor, Next and communities on open source

Arunoda is a prolific open source contributor, having built Storybook, and being a core contributor to MeteorJS and NextJS. He and I talk about how he started his career in open source, which led to him freelancing, then building Kadira (an performance monitoring tool for MeteorJS) and Storybook. After leaving the Meteor community he went on to work with Vercel as a maintainer of NextJS and their core hosting platform. He has since moved on to his own projects where he is building getstarted.sh and a course on building Bulletproof NextJS applications. There are plenty of lessons in this episode on how to create useful content, build a community, and to just get started with open source development.  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/work-in-programming/message
