Open source isn’t just about code. It’s about community.
This month, InterGen’s president, Brian Mitchell, was featured in the Joomla Community Magazine for his work as a mentor in the first-ever Joomla Academy program.
The project’s focus? Building a better way for developers to migrate sites from WordPress to Joomla – while also developing leadership, teamwork, and mentorship across the global Joomla community.
In his article, Brian reflects on the experience, the lessons learned, and the power of collaboration in open source software.
This article is part of a two-part series written as an encouragement for the upcoming discussion about the very bright future of the Joomla project. InterGen cares deeply, as Joomla has been our development platform of choice since the company was founded in 2006. In addition to running InterGen, in 2013 I began actively volunteering for the Joomla project—first as a team member, then as a team lead. I served on the Open Source Matters Board of Directors as Treasurer and later President from 2019–2021, overseeing all legal and financial concerns of the project. I am currently greatly enjoying mentoring for the inaugural session of the Joomla Academy.

Much of what I share below is born of many conversations with passionate Joomlers. I tend to remember great ideas well and often forget from where they came. If you hear your ideas or voice below, thank you for sharing your creativity and part of your Joomla story with me.
For nearly two decades, the interGen team has embraced Joomla! as our preferred content management system. Last week, we celebrated this powerful platform and its vibrant community at JoomlaDay USA in Nashville, an annual event attracting developers and Joomla enthusiasts from across North America and Europe.
After spending the week in Nashville, our whole band would agree that the Joomla platform really sings!
