title: "An introduction to code52"

I don't know which one of my co-conspirators came up with the idea, but it all started with a simple premise:
67

8+
"A new project every week"
9+
10+
Madness! Surely it couldn't be possible. What would that even involve? I had so many questions, but as we discussed it we started to come to something resembling an agreement.
11+
12+
We wanted:
13+
14+
- to introduce more developers to open-source projects and help them learn the ropes.
15+
- to create a community that encouraged contributions across a broad range of technologies.
16+
- to work on projects which both the creators and community want to improve.
17+
18+
Of course, that doesn't get away from the original question I had.
19+
20+
**Why a week?**
21+
22+
Depending on your perspective, a week may be a long time - or it may not. This is still a contentious point within our group, but a week suits me because:
23+
24+
- shorter timelines encourage achievable goals.
25+
- shorter timelines reduce the incentive to procrastinate.
26+
- more variety of projects to work on - something different each week.
27+
- with good organisation (i.e. us having our shit together), each week should be productive out of the gate.
28+
29+
30+
31+
32+
33+
34+
35+
36+
37+
38+
- lots of projects out there are in need of contributons
39+
- people have good ideas
