    IBM Open Enterprise Foundation for z/OS - Anthony Giorgio, Mike Fulton, Igor Todorovski

    When you beat a game on Super Difficulty, sometimes there's an extra bonus reward or special animation waiting at the end. There's no prize for taking the hard route when it comes to mainframe, so let's make sure we clear out as many hurdles and time sinks as possible at the start of a project. This means getting systems set up exactly the way you'd expect, with the tools you'll need, in an environment that's familiar. The IBM Open Enterprise Foundation for z/OS is a no-cost collection of vetted open source developer tools for z/OS that you can download and have on your systems today. Why? How? I'll let the Mike, Anthony, and Igor spill the details.  They also asked that include this absolutely massive list of links: IBM Open Enterprise Foundation for z/OS - https://www.ibm.com/products/open-enterprise-foundation-zos Join the System Z Enthusiasts Discord Server - https://discord.gg/sze z/OS Open Tools - https://zosopentools.org/#/ z/OS Open Tools Github - https://github.com/ZOSOpenTools/ The UNIX Command Line on z/OS : Use It  - https://makingdeveloperslivesbetter.wordpress.com/2024/06/25/the-unix-command-line-on-zos-use-it/ The Mainframe Demystified - https://igortodorovskiibm.github.io/blog/
