As part of the GOOD Conference, we held our very first Contributor Jam — a half-day event designed to encourage community contributions and give people a clearer picture of how Open OnDemand works behind the scenes.

Our goal was to give people a chance to get involved in any way they felt comfortable, from writing code and updating docs to offering help, while continuing to grow as part of the OOD community.

The response and participation was incredible! We’re excited to highlight some amazing individuals who earned [special badges](https://discourse.openondemand.org/badges) during the Jam.
