Onboarding: Local

Onboarding Local is a hands-on tour of some of the systems you’ll be working on / with during your time as a CF contributor. It’s good solo-able material, and good preparation for OSS Onboarding (see below).

Whether you are Engineering, Product, Design, Docs, or one of dozens of other roles that make our engine run and you’re curious about the essentials of the CF or Concourse user experience, then this track is for you.

Onboarding: OSS (a.k.a. Onboarding Week)

Onboarding OSS is intended to be a facilitated exploration of Open Source Cloud Foundry, embarked upon with other Cloud Foundry newbies. Unlike Local, it is more of a puzzle than a tour. It provides:

  1. A self-paced learning environment paired with others who are learning too.
  2. A coherent, if cursory, overview of a complicated product.
  3. Empathy for the customer who uses that product.
  4. The opportunity to struggle through these problems and really learn the material.
  5. A little knowledge of the breadth of work 70+ teams are doing around the world.
