Today's episode is about Open Source. And who is better to talk about it than an industry all-star panel!
This episode is part of our MasterTips series, which include tips from industry leaders. It is a panel discussion from the Future Developer Summit, an exclusive event for developer marketing industry leaders.

Some of the topics they discussed are:

- Are there projects from hobbyists that drive major company contributions?
- How can we open up Open Source?
- Should we include non-developers in Open Source for content and use-cases?
