Hacktoberfest2023 VS forem

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.

The journey of deploying an open-source software platform like forem can be complex and daunting, but with the right tools and services, it can also be remarkably rewarding. This article details my experience deploying Forem, the software behind the Dev.to, on Render.com, deploying Promptzone.com.

In the future, I think we will probs make this uniform with the others. I've logged this request here on GitHub... hmmm, maybe I should embed it here instead. 😉

I even opened a discussion, which got no responses so far (which I think existed somewhere else or I am the only one with this issue...).

Whether you're sharpening your JS skills, making PRs to your OSS repo of choice 😉, sprucing up your portfolio, or writing a new post here on DEV, we'd like to hear about it.

Do more documentation-related and code contributions to Forem's repository

This year again, I contributed to DEV with multiples ways, I've contributed very little to the repository, moderated the bad posts quite a bit, and welcomed newcomers to the platform. I feel that a place like this should always be so welcoming to users, so why shouldn't I?
