Welcome to the Factory24 Github organization page, this repo is used as an index for several purposes:
- To provide overview of the Factory24 project
- To provide a "sitemap" for the organization repos and activities
- To hightlight the Factory24 OSS contributing guidelines
With the increasing applications of technology in our daily lives, there has been a corresponding demand for skilled software engineers in Africa revolving areas involving mobile development and data science. With their existing knowledge, Afrolynk guides the entrepreneurs to take that step further and bridge this gap with the help of Factory24.
Factory24 is a stimulus to young entrepreneurs in Africa through bootcamps & training by offering mentoring sessions and workshops but also create a platform for these entrepreneurs to be exposed in an environment to meet potential employers.
we're currently developing to build next Gen Tech Entrepreneurs in 8 African countries including Tunisia, Ghana, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Nigeria, Uganda etc.
This organization page will host a variety of repositories including project specifications & software releases.
Nothing in this sitemap is permanent yet. The most important repos for now cover three separate guidelines:
- Project Submission Guide - complete guideline of how to submit project ideas including templates and step-by-step instructions.
- Course Directory - complete outline of all courses provided on Factory24 platform, breakdown of course objectives and guide to raising issues.
- Developer Onboarding Guide - detailed guide for the Factory24 developer onboarding process.
These guidelines will remain as drafts. Most of the improvement work will happen in the issues or in active pull requests so if you have ideas to make getting started with Open Source contributing at Factory24 very friendly, go
take a look!
Out of the multiple projects we're building, about 60% are built on public repositories on Github, released under
OSI-approved licenses like the MIT License, the GNU General Public License and Apache License 2.0. This
ensures that developers who have completed any of our courses can almost immediately start contributing by reviewing
code, creating pull requests and making commits. Essentially turning contributors to maintainers and a community.
The technical model we will be replicating on all our projects is covered in our Contributing Guide which outlines our contributing guidelines, code of conduct, best practises for maintainers, our community profile and so much more.
