The OSU Open Source Lab is very helpful for those who want to start their own open source projects. It has helped me get started with my software development endeavors, and the staff are always willing to help out. I think that the OSU lab has some advantages over other similar companies such as Google Code or GitLab. I have used the OSL for my software development ventures, and it has been great! I like how easy it is to use. They also give you many tutorials to guide you through your first steps in using GitHub. I would recommend this service to anyone looking to get into open source projects. I am currently working on an application called "The Moth" which is designed to help people who suffer from social anxiety.
