Hacktoberfest @HackClub-NMIT
Hacktoberfest — brought to you by DigitalOcean in partnership with Dev & Intel — is a month-long celebration of open-source software. Maintainers are invited to guide would-be contributors towards issues that will help move the project forward, and contributors get the opportunity to give back to both projects they like and others they've just discovered. No contribution is too small — bug fixes and documentation updates are valid ways of participating.
Apart from the cool open source contributions you will be making, Hacktoberfest will give you a cool limited edition shirt as well stickers from Hack Club!
If you do sign up, here's what you'll need to do, First, sign up on the Hacktoberfest site at https://hacktoberfest.digitalocean.com. To qualify for the official limited edition Hacktoberfest shirt, you must register and make four pull requests between October 1-31. Pull requests can be to any public repository on GitHub, not just the ones with issues labeled Hacktoberfest. If a maintainer reports your pull request as spam, or not in line with the project’s code of conduct, you will be ineligible to participate.
