How open-sourcing your projects can improve them by Olivier Jourdan

As a LabVIEW developer, I’ve witnessed the incredible benefits of open-sourcing my work. In this talk, I’ll share my experience of how publicly sharing one of my LabVIEW APIs has led to significant improvements, including new features and bug fixes.

I’ll take you through the development of this small LabVIEW API, from the initial idea to the latest release, pointing out where sharing code has been beneficial. I’ll also share some valuable insights about open-source practices that will help you take the first step in this world.

My ultimate goal is to encourage other LabVIEW developers to adopt open-source practices for their projects. This will create a culture of collaboration and knowledge-sharing that will definitely benefit all of us.
