- Open Opportunities started as a thriving community using a simple WordPress implementation, which was effective for its initial pilot. To support its rapid growth, it has moved to the Midas open source platform. The program allows federal employees to ask for support from other federal employees on various projects. As a result, taxpayers save money and federal employees broaden their skillset on the job. | |
