Hello, and welcome to ASWF Dev Days!
...
Check out the ASWF Dev Days site and the participating projects, and if you are interested in participating, please register! If you have questions, feel free to reach out on the #devdays slack channel of the ASWF Slack instance.
If you're reading this, you're probably interested in contributing to the MaterialX project. So also say hi on the #materialx channel of the ASWF Slack, introduce yourself, and let us know what you'd like to work on (or ask for advice on what to work on).
Why is this helpful to you (and your company)?
...
- Check out https://sites.google.com/view/aswfdevdays/home, and sign up on the registration form.
- Choose a project (probably MaterialX if you're reading this) that you'd like to learn more about by working on for a day.
- If you're doing this at work, arrange with your supervisor to get the time on those days to work on it. Also, your company may need to do some advance work to ensure you have permissions to work on the project, get CLAs signed, etc. Just check with whoever seems to be experienced with open source at your company to have them tell you what, if anything, you need to do. If you are a student or independent, or know for sure that things you work on in open source are your own, then you can skip this step (you'll need to still sign an individual CLA, though).
- Between now and the event, take the time to fork, clone, and build the source so you aren't fumbling with that for the first time on the day. Take a look at our Quick Start for Developers or complete Developer Guide for more details on building the MaterialX project. We know that CMake and GitHub can be tricky, please don't hesitate to ask questions if/when you get stuck.
