Explore the journey from using Flatcar Container Linux to becoming an active maintainer in this 33-minute conference talk from KubeCon + CloudNativeCon. Learn how to transition from simply running Flatcar on clusters to actively contributing to this minimal, auto-updating Linux distribution designed for security, stability, and simplicity. Discover practical approaches to diving into operating system code, even if OS or kernel-level development is new to you, and identify ideal "first issues" to tackle as a newcomer. Understand the most compelling areas for contribution within the Flatcar ecosystem and gain insights into the collaborative nature of open source operating system development. Whether you're an experienced developer or curious about OS-level hacking, gain the knowledge and confidence needed to join Flatcar's growing community of contributors and help shape the future of container-optimized Linux distributions.
