A convection oven for aspiring code monsters 😎💯👨💻
A system to build practical experience after Computer Science school / boot camp.
A system that companies can attach to their open source repos to issue stock and compensation to developers and mentors.
It is a community of people developing software for Company Stock.
It is a community of mentors teaching students with merit based certifications.
There is a missing gap between Computer Science School / Bootcamp and landing the first paid internship.
OpenCompany is a system that allows people to contribute to open source projects for stock compensation, and build their resumes.
Open Company creates a metaphorical karate dojo of code, with people of higher ranks mentoring the lower ranks.
Build practical coding experience with a mentor.
Hit successfully merged commit count milestones in order to rise in the ranks.
When achieving milestones, you pay mentors + the Open Source Company for promotion, similar to the black belt test fee in a karate dojo.
On promotion, you receive stock options of said Open Source Company
[Totally Configurable !!]
[ SEE api\app\rank.py ]
The fee serves as :
- a payment for mentees to appreciate the work of mentors/teachers.
- compensation to the company for the creation of a practical learning opportunity with a mentor.
The Stock serves as :
- An incentive to the mentees and mentors to develop code and mentor for the Open Source Company.
Mentor Rewards / Payment : majority of certification fees [ 55% - 85% based on rank] goes back to pay the mentors/teachers.
The rest goes back to the configured Delaware C. Corp.
[Totally Configurable!!!]
[ SEE api\app\rank.py ]
Developer Rewards / Payment : promotion / rank increase is rewarded with :
- 100 - 1,600 Shares of Corporate Stock, [Totally Configurable!!!]
- Access to exclusive discord chat for your dojo rank.
- More opportunity for leadership in the community.
- A larger portion of mentor fees.
Clarification : All Developers are eligible to be mentors after ranking up once! The only criteria to mentor is that you be a rank above your mentees. On mentee promotion, the mentee is required to put in a name of ONE mentor. Mentees choose the mentors, and can string you on. It is not the other way around.
- get github api keys to put in the settings.py file.
- copy the settings_example.py, and configure it to a repo of choice, user, and repo name. [TODO support multiple repos.]
- Install Docker, and run the command :
docker-compose up --build
