GitHub has expanded its Sponsors program to all developers in India, removing the waitlist and allowing those with a bank account in the country to sign up immediately. This move aims to financially support the robust Indian open source community, which includes over eight million developers who have contributed more than 200 million times to open source projects in the last year. By creating GitHub Sponsors profiles, Indian developers can now receive financial backing for their projects, gain recognition from influential figures in the open source community, and find improved opportunities for internships and full-time positions. The initiative not only facilitates global support for Indian developers but also offers tools to help users discover and support open source projects and maintainers in India. GitHub plans to continue expanding the program to more regions, further enabling developers to pursue careers in open source development.
