In the open-source community, October is officially known as the Hacktoberfest season. Hacktoberfest is Digital Ocean's annual event that encourages people to contribute to open source throughout October. They have successfully been conducting it for the past 9 years. This year, ReacPlay has decided to organize a hackathon as a part of the hacktoberfest celebration 🥳.

You can add a new play, improve the site, or help resolve general issues from the Issues section.

We have more compelling plans for the next month. The Hackathon is just a part of it! Our main project, ReactPlay, has been open-sourced on GitHub since the beginning. You can contribute to it regardless of the month and the hackathon.

It will be unfair to end this article without explaining what made me write about Nhost. As part of the Open Source Initiatives, we are building a platform called ReactPlay. It helps react developers learn ReactJs with a practice model.

Check out the project.

First, you need to fork the react-play repo. You can do this by clicking the Fork button on the top right corner of the repo. If you are new to forking, please watch this YouTube Guide.

In case you get stuck or need help, you can find the working code from this repository.

Create React App (CRA) abstracts away the complexity of configuring Webpack, Babel, and other build tools, allowing developers to focus on writing React code. It includes features such as hot module reloading for efficient development.

Immerse yourself in the official Create React App documentation for a deeper understanding.

Create React App (https://create-react-app.dev/)

- And ofc, there are some templates/frameworks that bring something of that together (https://create-react-app.dev/; maybe https://vitejs.dev/) - google for templates.

I recommend finding some friend with modern experience or at least some youtube tutorials or at least some learning course. That would help you to catch up on the best way to bootstrap your first project. Then you can practice.

What's the connection?

Before we embark on our journey, make sure you have React installed and a React project set up. If not, fear not! Create React App is your trusty sidekick for a quick start.
