• India Open Source Development: Harnessing Collaborative Innovation for Global Impact

  Indian developers have embraced platforms like GitHub and GitLab, which serve as global meeting points for coding projects. Developer communities such as FOSSAsia and Open Source India regularly organize hackathons, webinars, and code sprints that bring together enthusiasts to tackle both local and global problems. - Source: dev.to / 1 day ago

• Open Source Funding: Strategies, Case Studies, and Best Practices

  In this article, we explore funding methods that empower projects such as Red Hat, GitLab, and Blender. Our discussion focuses on overlaying robust financial models with community-led efforts while incorporating advanced technologies like blockchain and smart contracts for secure, transparent fund distribution. With clear definitions, tables, bullet lists, and real-world examples, we aim to provide a holistic view... - Source: dev.to / 30 days ago

• The Hidden Challenges of Building with AWS

  💡** My Take:** If you’re not ready to spend hours debugging AWS configurations, you might want to consider other cloud options, such as DigitalOcean or Gitlab for CI/CD. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Understanding Open Source Developer Support Networks

  The foundation of OSS is its community. OSDSNs offer platforms like GitHub and GitLab that encourage communication and collaboration, creating a sense of belonging among developers. These platforms are essential for managing projects and enhancing motivation within the community. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

• Navigating the Financial Landscape of Open Source Projects

  The open core model involves offering a core open-source product while providing premium features as part of a separate, paid product. This model encourages community involvement by allowing free access to the foundational version. Meanwhile, it supports sustainability by charging for advanced features tailored to specific market needs. GitLab exemplifies this model, offering a free version alongside premium... - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• Introduction to Loro's Rich Text CRDT

  Darcs [0] patch theory was a predecessor to OTs/CRDTs (and a predecessor to git as well; in some ways it is the "smart" to which git was named "dumb"). When it works and performs well it is still sometimes version control magic. Pijul [1] is an interesting experiment to watch, trying to keep the patch theory flag flying and also trying to bring in updates from OTs and CRDTs as it can.

• Ask HN: Can we do better than Git for version control?

  Perforce. As for DVCS, the best one I've used is Darcs: https://darcs.net/ There are some sticky wickets (specifically, exponential-time conflict resolution) that hindered its adoption. Thankfully, there's Pijul, which is like Darcs but a) solves that problem; and b) is written in Rust! The perfect DVCS, probably! https://pijul.org/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Is it time to look past Git?

  Well technically one alternative I am going to bring up predates Git by several years, and that's DARCS. Fans of DARCS have written plenty of material on Git's perceived weaknesses. While DARCS' Haskell codebase apparently had some issues, its underlying "change" semantics have remained influential. For example, Pijul is a Rust-based contender currently in beta. It embraces a huge number of the paradigms,... - Source: dev.to / almost 3 years ago

• Quite excited by [Pijul beta] tbh. Git feels like the "C of version control" - ubiquitous, reliable, but old and not very user friendly. I'm hoping we'll get the "Rust of version control" soon enough! :D

  We already have the "haskell of version control", darcs, i.e. Nobody uses it. Source: over 3 years ago
