Hey folks! Anyone explain what is 'Google code-in ’ here for
Hi Ethan!
Google Code-In Tag is here because OpenMRS is a mentoring organization for the contest this year (Dec 2014-Jan 2015).
The Google Code-in is a contest to introduce pre-university students (ages 13-17) to the many kinds of contributions that make open source software development possible. The contest runs from December to January annually since 2010.
For many students the Google Code-in contest is their first introduction to open source development. For Google Code-in we work with open source organizations, each of whom has experience mentoring university students in the Google Summer of Code program, to provide “bite sized” tasks for participating students to complete during the seven week contest.
