In January 2020, the World Health Organization declared a state of emergency due to the novel coronavirus, leading to global disruptions and a significant shift in work dynamics as developers transitioned to remote work. This change was reflected in developer activities on GitHub, as detailed in the 2020 State of the Octoverse Report, which highlighted the impact of COVID-19 on work patterns, the community's response, and challenges in software security. The ReadME Project published articles exploring the open source community's rapid mobilization to address the pandemic, strategies for maintainers to balance work and personal life, and efforts by InfoSec professionals to secure open source code. Despite the blurring boundaries between work and home life, developers continued to engage in open source projects during off-hours, using these initiatives as a means to connect, learn, and contribute to global safety and health efforts. The pandemic's influence on developer activities and the open source community's response are further explored in the Octoverse Report and The ReadME Project.
