→ Registration for the GCC2021 Meeting is closed,
but you can still sign up for the CoFest.
This two day event gathers community members who are interested in contributing to Galaxy's code base, available tool set, documentation, training materials, and anywhere else that expands the Galaxy ecosystem.
CoFest participants will coalesce
around shared interests and address common challenges related to those interests. These clusters form before, at the beginning of, and throughout CollaborationFest and will be fluid and highly interactive with each other.
Goals!Our goals are to expand the contributor community and the Galaxy Ecosystem.
That's a short sentence, but it is very deliberately worded:
- Our first goal is to expand the contributor community. This CoFest is first and foremost about welcoming new contributors and helping you learn the resources and meet the people that will help you contribute.
- The second goal is to expand the Galaxy Ecosystem. Not just the code, but the whole ecosystem. That includes training, tools, best practice workflows, documentation, test cases, translations, infrastructure, and yes, even code.
This is a CollaborationFest. Not a hackathon, not a codefest, but a
CollaborationFest
