What is openjsf-summit?

This repository is the planning hub for the OpenJS Foundation Collaborator Summit. It is where the foundation coordinates regular in-person gatherings for the people who actively build and maintain its open-source JavaScript projects. Rather than containing a traditional software application, the repo serves as an organizational workspace for scheduling and running these events. The way it works is straightforward: each summit gets its own issue thread linked from the README. Those threads become the central place for discussions about logistics, session topics, and attendee coordination. Anyone who wants to participate or follow along can join the dedicated Slack channel, and the repository keeps a public record of both upcoming and past events stretching back to 2015. The primary audience is existing contributors to OpenJS Foundation projects like Node.js. If you are someone who commits code, reviews patches, or helps govern one of these projects, this is where you would find out about the next summit, see what was discussed at previous ones, and get involved in shaping the agenda. The events have been held in cities around the world, from Bilbao to Vancouver to Berlin, with occasional online summits as well. A notable tradeoff here is that the project uses GitHub's issue tracker as its event-planning system rather than a dedicated event management platform. This keeps the organization work fully transparent and sits naturally in the same toolset that these contributors already use every day. The README does not go into detail about session formats or specific planning workflows beyond linking to each event's issue thread, so the practical coordination mostly happens in those threads and in the linked Slack channel.
