How can we make mentoring accessible and meaningful for everyone?

Hi everyone! I m Hansi, founder of You2Mentor. I started this platform to bridge the gap in mentoring. Most people either don t have access to mentors, or the mentoring they get is limited to the organisation or the department they work in.

We re building a platform that helps individuals find mentors and supports organisations in running structured mentoring programs. Users can set goals, track progress, and grow skills in a meaningful way.

The State of Open Source 2025 - Key Takeaways

GitHub recently published this year's Octoverse, the state of the open-source ecosystem.

Below are my key takeaways:

  1. AI doesn t replace developers it brings more people into the ecosystem. A new developer joined GitHub every second in 2025. Top 5 developer populations: 1. United States, 2. India, 3. China, 4. Brazil, 5. United Kingdom.

  2. Open source remains the foundation. Fastest-growing OSS projects by contributors include @Zen Browser, @VS Code, and AI-focused @Continue.

  3. TypeScript is now the most used language on GitHub, overtook both Python and JavaScript. The AI effect? 80% of new repositories used just six languages: Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, C++, and C#.

  4. Gen AI is now standard in development. 1.1M public repositories now use an LLM SDK.

  5. Agents are here. Coding agents created 1M+ pull requests (PR) in the last 6 months, and it's just getting started.

Vibe Coding Best Practices and Must Have .md Files

about to Launch a product for creators after building for a few weeks to months.
Started as a way to get into vibe coding and just got real useful real quick lol.
But the goal is still that - mix my skills and knowledge as an engineer with the good parts of AI coding.
So i learned a few of what to need and have

  • Claude.md file

  • best coding practices section

  • pretty heavy compartmentalization & file structure separation

  • certain ways to prompt

  • ask for implementation plan before telling it to code

But i feel like all i learned is about directing prompts - im wondering...

what are you guys finding are the best .md or deeper ai vibe coding tricks that are helping you save time? be more efficient? debug ai less or help it get it right the first time? whats your vibe code tips and tricks?
