Show your journey. Build in public. Grow your skills.
fnplus is a community-driven open source org where learners and contributors build visible work, together.
fnplus (aka “fn+geeks”) exists to:
- Enable learning through doing
- Help contributors surface real work, not just toy projects
- Provide infrastructure, guides, and prompts for open source growth
- Amplify visibility: your work becomes your signal
We are inclusive, global, and focused on impact.
These are the repos currently pinned in the organization — they signal priority areas and pathways to get started:
- join-fnplus-with-a-pr (onboarding entry point)
- footsteps-app (core product / learning-path engine)
- hacktoberfest-interview-questions (contribution challenges & event tie-ins)
- curriculum (foundational learning guide)
- community-project-ideas (ideas, prompts, tutorials)
- awesome-paths (curated, topic-wise learning paths)
These help new contributors see where to begin, how to explore learning, contributory challenges, and product-adjacent work.
We follow naming conventions and repo categories that help orient contributors:
| Prefix / Pattern | Intent |
|---|---|
guide-… |
Educational guides, reference materials, primers |
rle-… |
Modules / components of the learning product (learning experience) |
hacktoberfest-… / contributions themes |
Repos tied to contribution challenges, algorithm sets, events |
| No prefix (core names) | Core product & infrastructure (e.g. footsteps-app, news-api) |
| Utilities / scripts | Tools like initDev to bootstrap or automate setup |
| Resource / curated | Repos like learn-for-free, community-project-ideas, awesome-paths |
This taxonomy gives a natural direction: guides → learning modules → infra → contribution / challenge repos.
Here’s a recommended path for new contributors:
- Star the fnplus organization
- Fork & make a PR in join-fnplus-with-a-pr to become part of the community
- Explore pinned repos and understand naming conventions
- Pick an area of interest (guides, learning modules, product, challenges)
- Read the
CONTRIBUTING.mdin that repo and check existing issues - Submit PRs — documentation, bug fixes, features, or idea proposals
- Engage: review others’ PRs, leave comments, propose improvements
Every contribution helps refine the structure, clarity, and developer experience of fnplus.
