Acerca de esta escucha

An inside look at modern open-source software developers - and their influence on our online social world.

Open-source software in which developers publish code that anyone can use has long served as a bellwether for other online behavior. In the late 1990s, it provided an optimistic model for public collaboration, but in the last 20 years it shifted to solo operators who write and publish code that's consumed by millions.

In Working in Public, Nadia Eghbal takes an inside look at modern open-source software development, its evolution over the last two decades, and its ramifications for an internet reorienting itself around individual creators. Eghbal, who interviewed hundreds of developers while working to improve their experience at GitHub, argues that modern open source offers us a model through which to understand the challenges faced by online creators. She examines the trajectory of open-source projects, including:

  • The platform of GitHub, for hosting and development
  • The structures, roles, incentives, and relationships involved
  • The often-overlooked maintenance required of its creators
  • And the costs of production that endure through an application's lifetime

Eghbal also scrutinizes the role of platforms like Twitter, Facebook, Twitch, YouTube, and Instagram that reduce infrastructure and distribution costs for creators but massively increase the scope of interactions with their audience.

Open-source communities are increasingly centered around the work of individual developers rather than teams. Similarly, if creators, rather than discrete communities, are going to become the epicenter of our online social systems, we need to better understand how they work and we can do so by studying what happened to open source.

Working (on GitHub) in Public

Interesting topic, but being 100% focused on GitHub does it a huge disservice.

I don’t regret listening to the full book, but I do feel duped into paying for something that should be sponsored by GitHub.

Great insight into a complex topic

Maintaining open source software is much more complex than people think. I was ONE of those people. I’m glad Nadia did this research for us to benefit from.

This is a very valuable book

I have been reading and thinking about the topic peer production, open source and working in public for years. The trail of books written about the subject had run dry until Nadia Eghbal wrote this book. It is a must read or listen.
