By Students, For Students. Powered by Open Source.
Git Guild is an open-source organization built exclusively to help students transition from learning syntax to shipping real-world software. We believe the best way to become a great engineer is by building in public, collaborating with peers, and contributing to open source.

- 🤝 Peer-to-Peer Mentorship: Code reviews, architecture discussions, and learning from fellow students across the globe.
- 💼 Portfolio Building: Turn green GitHub squares into real proof of work for your resume and future career.
