In a previous post, I described the first session I hosted at this year’s GSoC Mentor Summit, an unconference wrapping up the Google Summer of Code (GSoC) program. This post summarizes my second session titled Interesting software development resources.
The goal of this session was simple – get a group of developers in a room, let them describe what they’re interested in and want to learn more about, and let people recommend each other good sources of information.
We had a room full of software engineers with various backgrounds and interests, which resulted in a nice mixture of topics discussed. This is the list of good resources recommended during the session:
