In this episode, we meet Niall Maher and talk about InnerSource, which is a software development strategy that applies open source practices to proprietary code. InnerSource can help establish an open source culture within an organization while retaining software for internal use. In addition to discussing innersource, we’ll also hear about building communities. Niall is the founder of Codu, a supportive community space for coders and developers that’s going from strength to strength
