That was how I learned about the proverb "Each one, teach one". -While having a far greater historical background and being used in a wide range of contexts, for us, it simply meant that an experienced Graffiti writer, DJ, B-Boy etc. would teach a starter how to do it. -Being on both ends of this relation was a given. There was no hesitation at all. To not pass on the hard-earned knowledge, was considered a no-go. - -Back then, open source software had a somewhat rebelious feeling to it. No question, that was where I wanted to be, when I discoverd my passion for coding. -I made it as far as being a package maintainer for a free operating system. But beyond that, I was stuck. I wasn't making any real progress. -Eventually, I lost my drive and stopped. - -Years later, I entered the F# community with a reignited enthusiasm and found real mentorship. -A few months later, I found myself being a co-maintainer of Fantomas. In my opinion, one of the most important developer tools in the ecosystem. -_Each one, teach one_ worked for me, again. And again, I want to be on both sides of the relation. - -### Karma - -Nowadays I would argue, that the Open Source model has won. But this win came with a big price tag. Paid by individuals. -To a certain extend, that's okay. That's how hero stories are written. And we all love those stories. -But every participating party in a community, be it a sole developer or a company, has to look out for a healthy and sustainable balance. -Or Karma will collect the debt 😉 - -Investing some hours per week into the F# community has opened a couple of doors for me I did not imagine to ever be able to pass through. Privately and professionally. -Being a rather small community has it's drawbacks, no question. But it also has tremendous advantages: - -- You can really make a difference. -- You can meet the people behind the code. -- You can make friends. -- You can learn from the best. -- You can have an impact in your very own community. - -That's why I'm part of _Amplifying F#_. -And so should you.
