Hacktoberfest VS Hacktoberfest2023

In that course, we learned about the basics of open source, like how to make good PRs and contribute to random open-source projects, and how to use Git effectively in the process. We participated in events like Hacktoberfest that helped us embrace the spirit of open source.

If you do not have any opensource project in mind and are genuinely interested in contributing to open source, I have a tip to share. You can start by thinking about what you love doing. Could be coding, design, writing. Then you look around you; what are those tools or technologies you enjoy using or frequent day to day? Could be Firefox, Wikipedia, Git, VS Code, etc. Find out if they are open source and have a public repository. Another way to find open source projects is to participate in programs like Hacktoberfest, Outreachy, Google Summer of Code, etc. Even if you are not actively participating, you could visit their pages and check out past projects and organizations that were involved and get started.

You're probably a little late for Hackoberfest this year.

A few days ago, I made my Final Pull Request for this year's Hacktoberfest event, and it seems to be a perfect timing for publishing a recap of the entire experience.

One of the most exciting celebrations of open source is Hacktoberfest, an annual event held throughout October that brings together developers from around the globe to contribute to open-source projects.

Hacktoberfest is happening and I see a lot of really cool movements, like articles here on Dev and in the community on Discord! (And that's really cooooll)

I’m proud of the ctfd-account-hook project and I welcome contributions to it! I’m participating in Hacktoberfest, so you can get badges for getting pull requests accepted.

Hacktoberfest is an annual event that encourages open-source contributions on platforms like GitHub by submitting four pull requests. It's a valuable opportunity for collaborative coding and gaining experience.

Finding machine learning projects that are suitable for JS/TS developers during Hacktoberfest can be daunting due to the overwhelming abundance of open-source projects. We’ve simplified this process, offering you a refined selection of opportunities where your coding skills can shine and make a real impact.
