Day 50 | #100DaysofOSS
Fifty. That's the half way point. Hopefully, you've experienced the excitement that can come from this transformative open source journey– a journey that goes far beyond coding and makes space for you to grow your strengths, work through your weaknesses, make connections, and realize that contributions are far more than green squares on GitHub. #100DaysofOSS is about being a part of something bigger—a collective challenge to drive innovation and inclusivity in tech. So, if you're contemplating whether to continue or to get started, remember that each day brings a new opportunity to make an impact. Every person's contributions are the building blocks of the open-source ecosystem, and there's no better time than now to redefine what it means to be a contributor.
