Codacy Launches Fellowship Program for Open-Source Creators

Codacy, a platform that helps software development teams ship high-quality code faster, has launched a fellowship program for open-source projects, encouraging open-source software (OSS) creators worldwide to apply to become “Codacy Pioneers.”

“Supporting builders is part of our DNA. Through our platform, we help hundreds of thousands of developers with software insights. With Pioneers, we wanted to find new ways to help people build the future,” said Codacy CEO and co-founder Jaime Jorge.

Projects selected to participate in the program will receive a year-long $500 monthly stipend, free access to Codacy’s platform, widespread promotion for their project, and mentorship from some of the brightest minds of today’s OSS community.

Codacy has assembled an impressive roster of open-source experts to mentor and guide Pioneers, including:

• Vue framework creator Evan You
• Enix co-founder Jérôme Petazzoni
• Prisma founder Johannes Schickling
• CHAOSS community lead Ruth Ikegah
• Nakazawa Tech CEO Christoph Nakazawa

Applications for the Pioneers program close on October 9, 2023. Codacy’s expert panel will select ten Pioneers to participate in the fellowship, and the winners will be announced in October 2023.

To learn more and apply for the program, head to Codacy’s Pioneers page, and fill out the quick questionnaire to submit your open-source project for consideration.
