This writing is for you who are in thirst of giving impacts to the world but very busy just to make a living.

I always believe that repetitive collaboration between people with good intention will give big impacts on society. Look at how Linux was developed and its role in the world right now. Yes, it was started by Linus Torvalds alone, but along the way, the massive contribution from people around the world that actually bring Linux to become the most robust and stable Operating System in the world. Hence, making it the best choice for hosting websites because it can run and run and run for a very long time without finally end up in a crash.

The question is: if you are so busy with life, how can you build something that can give such a huge impact like Linux from your home on your spare-time?

  1. You have to use your expertise to contribute to the world.
  2. You have to make a commitment to yourself on the schedule when you will be able to do the works regularly.
  3. Join open projects and communities that offer remote contribution.

If you are not sure which project or community you should join, why not joining us in Jastfrii?

Jastfrii is a project to develop high quality free apps in web and mobile for society. We develop apps that are very needed by society but can’t/shouldn’t be monetized.

In Jastfrii, we harness the power of small contributions. Instead of having a full-time software engineer to develop an app, we divide the task so that 10 people can contribute to finishing the task for the same role.

If you are a software engineer, web or mobile developer, UI/UX designer, product owner/project manager, test engineer, and interested in joining Jastfrii, wherever you are in the world, feel free to contact me on my Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/iqbal-novramadani-50994556/.

Right now, we are developing a family financial planning app that we call “Famex” so that every family in this world will be able to tackle the challenge of financial planning by using their own smartphone. And a lot of other apps will be coming soon from Jastfrii, God Wills.

Let’s make some betterment in this world from our small regular contribution. And… thanks for reading!
