Open Source Summit North America 2025

In an era when transparency is often a corporate buzzword, few companies truly embrace it at scale. What happens when a company commits to making nearly all of its internal documentation open source? What are the benefits, risks, and unexpected cultural shifts that arise?

In this session, we’ll take a deep dive into our company’s journey of open-sourcing nearly all documentation—from GitHub issues and design review notes to sprint demos and research documents. We’ll explore the motivations behind this decision, the technical and cultural challenges we faced, and the impact on our customers, employees, and open-source contributors.

Join us as we dissect the practical realities of radical transparency in engineering and product development. Whether you’re considering a similar approach or simply want to understand how transparency at scale affects innovation, security, and collaboration, this session will provide invaluable lessons and strategies.
