Updates on the project:

So the pull request link is: https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/freeCodeCamp/pull/35845 I started brainstorming ideas for another R guide article I plan to write:

About the 2 articles

What I found interesting about the “Understanding personality types in open source” article is how true it all of it was. I am the type of person who learns better or understands better by reading a document as opposed to just being shown a diagram. I believe that had I not taken this class I probably would have never involved myself in open source. I consider this class in a way a kind of outreach. I think a classroom is a place where different personality types gather together. The added push this class gave me has made me see how simple it is to contribute to open source.

The question at hand:

Comment on your experience with the project evaluation assignment. For example, was it useful? Was it very time-consuming? How would you assess the activity level of a project? Can you propose other ways of doing this? Try to back up your ideas with some reasons.

Week 2

1. What do you think should be your first contributions to an open source project? Bear in mind the various ways that someone can contribute, and refer back to the webpages that discussed this if you need to.

1. My understanding of Free Software vs. Open Source : Open Source according to the article is a program that can be used and redistributed by anyone. It is a program wherein the source code can be modified and can be integrated into other software. The program remains open source even when it is modified, meaning they must operate under the original license and are open source as well. On the other hand Free Software is a philosophy. According to the reading in order for a software to be free it must adhere to four essential freedoms. The terminology free does not refer to pricing, it is about ability to have the freddom to do as you wish with the software.
