+title: Week 2 Code Of Conduct
+---
+
+# My Thoughts About CoC
+
+- Code of conduct is really important to a projects it helps contributors regarding possible
+  issues like conflict resolution, who and where to contact the main contributors of the
+  project, and finally set up the general rules. Furthermore, code of conduct is a good way to
+  learn the essential values of project.I feel like a lot of people view code of conducts as a 
+  way of restricting potential contributors when it is meant to foster a better environment for developers. 
+  I think having a code of conduct definitely adds legitimacy to an open source project.
+  Personally I would not contribute to a project without a code of conduct as a code of conduct
+  sort of sets up the working environment of a project. Without having one, I wouldn't know
+  if the project has some sort of toxic setting that would be suitable for most people. Unless,
+  the project is super interesting I would consider but it is practically the norm now to have
+  a code of conduct on an open source project. Not saying that everyone will follow the code of
+  conduct but it is still very good to have. Enforcing something like a CoC is just impossible
+  online since CoC isn't law but it can help deter people from potentially doing harm. I guess moderators
+  can help like contributors who look at pull/issue/merge requests and see if anything harmful is happening
+  that violates their code of conduct.
+
+- During the CoC activity I picked the [blender coc](https://developer.blender.org/docs/handbook/communication/code_of_conduct/#) 
+  to look at and it seems very simple which 
+  compared to the [Go CoC](https://go.dev/conduct#) that we all looked it which is also simple but much more detailed with
+  specific issues like conflict resolutions. Like the Code 
+  Covenant's CoC which is very basic, I think every project can adopt something similar and perhaps
+  through that we can all foster better development environments for all developers alike!
