Summary

Harness is actively participating in Hacktoberfest 2022 by supporting OpenFeature, a CNCF project focused on standardizing feature flag functionality to improve interoperability across programming languages. Hacktoberfest, founded by DigitalOcean in 2014, is an annual event encouraging open-source contributions, and Harness is contributing by promoting the development of OpenFeature providers for its feature flag SDKs. As a proponent of open-source software, Harness sponsors initiatives like the Open Source Initiative, CD Foundation, and CNCF, and offers several free tools under open-source and source-available licenses. During Hacktoberfest, Harness is providing resources and guidance to contributors through Slack discussions and GitHub repositories for languages such as Java, Go, .NET, and JavaScript, encouraging community engagement and collaboration in building OpenFeature providers.
