Contributing to Open Source with Brian Douglas
February 24, 2022
In our very first guest episode, Brian Douglas, Director of Developer Advocacy at GitHub, joins us to talk about Open Source projects and the benefits of contributing.
Max Howell
CEO
Max Howell is the CEO of tea.xyz and creator of Homebrew. Brew was one of the largest open source projects of all time, with tens of millions of users to this day.
For his contributions to the world of development, he was compensated extremely sparsely (a blanket from Google and an iPad from Square), so he set out to make tea: a new, better package manager than brew that utilizes web3 technology to remunerate value back to open source devs.
