Introducing Facebook’s Developer Circles Open Source Immersion

The Developer Circles Open Source Immersion initiative is a month-long celebration of Open Source technology run by Facebook.

This brand new initiative will provide global developers with practical education and experience contributing to Open Source projects in preparation for our annual Developer Circles Community Challenge. Held in September, the Community Challenge is a virtual hackathon welcoming global innovators to form teams and compete for cash prizes.

Over one month starting July 15, 2020, participants in the Open Source Immersion will benefit from a range of educational experiences and receive support as they submit Pull Requests (PR) on GitHub.

All successful participants will receive a certificate of participation at the end of the initiative, and the first 1,000 eligible participants will also receive a limited-edition swag giveaway from Facebook for Developers.
