InnerSource is a software development methodology that applies the lessons learned from decades of open source software development to the concerns of tech leads and developers working inside proprietary organizations. In this introductory level course, InnerSource experts Danese Cooper and Russell Rutledge draw on their own experiences at companies like PayPal, Nike, and more to describe how InnerSource methods solve real world issues. How do I get teams located in far flung locations, possibly speaking different languages, and using different tools to work together effectively? How do I teach teams to contribute code without disrupting each other's workflow? How can I encourage developers in one business unit to incorporate functionality in their products using features developed by a competing business unit? These are just a few of the concerns InnerSource can address. By the end of this course, you'll have a firm understanding of InnerSource's key practices (collaboration, transparency, and mentorship) and a solid grasp of how you can use them to transform your own team from average to excellent.
