“Open Source is a topic that today is used also outside the IT world but nobody talks about how to be part of it, instead only to be a consumer or how can be profitable.
Rome wasn’t build in a day but all the streets lead to Rome, we have all the streets but we are missing capable people to keep this world growing and improving.
This book is my condensed personal experience in the last 12 years in various projects, communities and roles in Open Source. Including my best practice, tips and a lot of examples and resources.
THIRD EDITION
2 years ago I published the 2nd edition, in the meantime various things changed like with the Covid situation and I missed the people during FOSS conference, that was one of the most inspiring things for this project.
Anyway in these time I gathered over 80 links and new stuff so I written the 3rd edition.

- 134 pages compared to 115 pages of the previous edition
- An Italian case section in the conclusion chapter
- More focus about Burnout, Maintainer duties
- Better explanation about fundings
