Why you should contribute to systemd! (asg2025)

Chaos Computer Club - recent events feed

I'll use these 20 minutes to explain why and why contributing to systemd is a great experience. We'll avoid beating dead horses by not discussing git forges and email, but instead focus on the development experience, from building systemd distribution packages from git main, running integration tests against those distribution packages, debugging failures, writing new tests, and installing the distribution packages on real hardware to debug issues.
