Using open in the open
Carefully crafting the environment is as important as the framework and the team. Residencies—in person and virtual—align cross-functional teams to shared goals, and equip them with the best of open source tooling.
There are no prescribed methodologies or practices. We know that each challenge may need a different approach, and we can adapt to quickly reshape solutions that solve specific problems.
