We created osoc to give students and newly graduates a first relevant work experience. We'll help you with communicating and delivering like a pro. |
You and your other team members will create a lot of valuable things for the client in these 4 weeks. It's important that they get to see it, use and reuse it (we are open!).
That's why you, as a student, are responsible to make sure you gather and communicate about this!
Make it something you'll be proud of, and you can show off in your portfolio 😎

Gather everything, document it well and make sure they can find out about where to find everything (in the team's deliverables folder) via a handover email at the end of osoc.
Make sure your project can survive on the internet, and you can refer to it in your portfolio. A link that can won't suddenly be taken down, like for instance on Github Pages, will help you here.
Giving someone the 411 means you give them all context and updates they need to hit the ground running; to make sure that they are as informed as possible. It definitely is possible your project returns next year.
So if you are working on a project that has been around the year before, make sure you get your hands on that information!
Step 1: Go to your project page and find the link under "File Storage"
Step 2: Go to Deliverables
Step 3: Find the deliverables checklist
Step 4: Start checking boxes!
Gather all the knowledge of the team’s project in this dossier.
****This will help the client understand what kind ship the team has built, how they got to that ship, and where to find everything.
- Find the template in your team folder
- Find examples of the handover dossier here https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/16z6e39rb6t7AAgYl0InFLsG09o8BI3BC?usp=sharing
The internet is volatile. Things disappear. Your effort should not.
We want to make sure the project remains findable & traceable even after it’s removed from its domain name, and is still legible by people that don't want to dive in the code.

- Get access to a template [example]
Contacting press, user tests, ..
Not everything has a guide. But we have many coaches, student coaches and even students to help out. Get in touch!
Write a clear, professional email with a link to your deliverables at the end of open summer of code – and a kind goodbye.
Yes, it’s a lot. This is why we have the last week available to do that.
our team is not just to “code”, “write”, “business”. They are here to learn to see the bigger picture, create a project, to grow. It’ll help them do that!
