theForks.io
A space for Manitoban programmers, developers, and designers to share, discover, and discuss local open-source programs and projects.
The Forks, Winnipeg† is a historical site that has seen six thousand years of human activity. It embodies a spirit of teamwork and community, which has persisted into the modern day, evolving into Winnipeg's foremost meeting place.†
Just as community is a critical driver of progress in society, Open Source resources are the foundation of modern technology. This space, theForks.io, is meant to be a digital counterpart for Winnipeg's programmer/tech community.
Whether you've built a handy CLI tool, a small web app, or just a fun experiment, we want to showcase it here!
By adding your project, you get:
- Visibility — Your work is showcased alongside other local devs.
- Portfolio Material — Link to your project in job applications or resumes.
- Networking — Connect with other Winnipeg developers.
- Git & Open Source Practice — Learn pull requests, forks, branching, and reviewing code.
- Community Impact — Inspire others to learn and build.
