Sprints | December 1-3

PyData global is hosting multiple sprints for open source projects. Each sprint will have a project maintainer leading the sprint to help guide the contributors throughout the session. Learn more at https://pydata.org/global2022/sprints/.

What are Sprints?

Development sprints offer an opportunity to enhance and contribute to open source projects in a focused session with the project maintainers. It is a fun exercise that helps open source projects to improve with the help of the open source community.

Who can participate?

ALL experience levels are welcome to participate. Contribution guides and environment setup instructions are provided with each sprint.

Sprints Schedule

You can access the schedule of the sprints using this link.

The duration of each sprint is 4 hours.

Communication Channels

Discord
Every sprint will have its own channel on discord. Contributors should enroll in those discord channels to receive the list of issues to work on and have a space to discuss their progress with the maintainers.

Zoom
During the sprint, there will be a dedicated zoom call for that sprint which will be used for sprint introduction. Participants will be divided into breakout rooms where a maintainer will come over to support attendees when needed.

Before the Sprint
It is crucial to read the documentation and environment set up instructions to have a productive sprint. If you’re facing any issues in setting up your environment, please use slack to ask for support in setting up the environment before the sprint begins.
