      #chatopens Regarding Q2, my question is more fundamental: how does one grow a developer? What kind of basic skills do you need?

      Time to bring out an expression common in the Perl computer language community: TMTOWTDI — there's more than one way to do it #ChatOpenS

      Specifically, there are a /lot/ of paths available to one gaining and improving coding skills, including formal education along the lines of a C.S. degree; self-education; using one technical job (e.g., PC support) as a way of getting involved in more programming... #ChatOpenS

      IOW... no engineering license required, which is both helpful, and sometimes not. For example, some of the more informal routes are more open to some people than to others. #ChatOpenS

      As far as individuals go, learning about algorithmic thinking can be helpful; having opportunities to build stuff, no matter how small, can help as well... PROVIDED that helpful feedback is available. That kind of feedback can sometimes to hard to get. #ChatOpenS

      We can try a kind of "pilot" mentoring program. Find a small handful of candidates wh have the interest and set them up with an experienced mentor coder in the community.

      One specific thing we can try is participation in funded internship programs like @outreachy and Google Summer of Code. It does take a lot of work to provide good mentorship in the context of those programs, though. #ChatOpenS

      We're happy to chat about participating in the next round. Drop us an email at organizers at outreachy dot org. We'll be looking for new mentoring communities in August.
