We discussed how student tech communities play a significant role in colleges helping bridge the gap, introduce concepts like Open source.
Many think that building a community of users who engage with each other is easy. But, actually, it isnât! Community leaders play an essential role in nurturing usersâ needs.
I feel that leading communities from a student level help shape oneâs career early â give them a chance to lead, organize hackathons, experience failure, and even experiment.
If you are a student/professional, try joining a tech community like Java User Groups, Kubernetes, JavaScript, otherwise create one in your school, college, university. Help organize events, bring in speakers, collect feedback, maybe run an annual hackathon, scout for sponsors. There is a lot you could learn in this process.
