Open Source Team Launches New Project
02/21/2025
The Open Source with SLU team aims to promote and sustain open-source practices across our campus. The group identifies software projects that could benefit from open-source development and help project teams enhance their work. Open Source is encouraging the SLU community to share their project details so it can help make the project better and more sustainable.
Open Source can help with projects involving research software, educational tools,
web applications, data analysis tools and other software projects
By sharing project details, Open Source offers:
- Expert evaluation of codebase and documentation
- Actionable recommendations for improvement
- Support in making the repository external-contributor-friendly
- Increased project visibility within and beyond SLU
- Access to a growing open-source community
