This is awesome, Franklin!

I personally have been hesitant about Open Source because I assumed that it requires high levels of programming proficiency.

Will take a look at these resources and see where I can fit in.

Thank you so much for sharing😇

You can start with Open Source at any time, there's no need to be a super expert... actually you learn by doing :)

I covered this on a video if you want to have a look: [youtu.be/kIsBsFPAZQk](https://youtu.be/kIsBsFPAZQk)

I regularly post on YouTube about Open Source in case you're interested ;)
