Hi, this is my first ever dev blog. I was thinking about writing a dev blog. A couple of days ago I received my Hacktoberfest 2020 swags and my thoughts were changed to writing about my Hacktoberfest 2020 experience even four months after the 2020 Hacktoberfest. I have participated in hacktoberfest in order to receive the free swags but later I realized that to receive the swags I need to submit four valid pull request. I have heard about the term pull request but I have never submitted one. I have then started reading blogs about submitting a pull request on Github. Understanding how to submit a pull request was easy more challenging was selecting the right repository to contribute. Finally, I choose the repo awsome-resources by Shahed Nasser (https://github.com/shahednasser/awesome-resources). This repo is all about a collection of technical resources. I have submitted almost 6 valid pull request and wrote myself a technical blog and added to the repo. This took a while and I have to give much of my effort and time. From the Hacktoberfest I learned that the swags are a token of appreciation for the effort taken by everyone during the entire program. All the beginners reading this post never participate in any program only to receive swags and a certificate. Give your effort and hard work this can bring you never-ending happiness and motivation to do more in your life. This is what I learned form Hacktoberfest 2020. Thanks for reading All suggestions and supports are welcome.

However, not everyone is able to help big projects, and a lot of people resort to smaller and simple projects. Also, I wanted to create a project that would be helpful long after Hacktoberfest. That's when I started my project Awesome Resources.

Thanks for sharing this!

If anyone looking for free alternative for certain tool that you can use to help your startup. Here is the open (re)source project: https://freestuff.dev/ (free stuff for developer)

I also made a list of free service or tools for developers to use . It’s open source so people can easily peek into how it’s made on Github. That way we’re also accepting submissions through Pull Request.

Since it’s an open (re)source on github, people start contributing some contents.
