"Open Source it's a people problem, before being an engineering problem"

Most of the tools we use daily to create Android apps are Open Source. The Open Source community is a great space where new ideas are built and shared with developers all over the world, for free!

But what does it mean to be part of this community? How can one get started and grow as an OSS contributor? And how can OSS involvement lead to professional opportunities and career advancement?

In this panel, we will hear from both OSS maintainers and users of popular projects, who will share their experiences, challenges and insights on the OSS ecosystem.

If you haven't opened your first pull request or if you're a seasoned OSS maintainer, this panel is for you!

Do you know Chucker?

Chucker is an Open Source debugging tool for your Android apps that acts as an OkHttp interceptor. With Chucker, you can inspect and debug HTTP(S) requests and responses directly from your app, without the need of external desktop tools.

In this lightning talk, I will present Chucker 4.0, the latest stable release which comes packed with new feature such as GraphQL support, syntax highlighting, HAR support and much more.

It's time to stop using println to debug your network code, and start using Chucker to catch 'em all (your network requests)!
