HacktoberFest 2021 started yesterday, on October 1st (for me September 30th), and I registered myself to help open source "one contribution at a time".
I'm very happy to make part of this developer effort to empower the future of software and coding. I hope this year goes better than the earlier ones!
This is the first part of a devlogs series I'm going to do thought all October, sharing my experience on this HacktoberFest. It's the first time I do something like, so I'll try my best.
Day 1
I began preparing myself for the event, making some (small) Pull Requests, searching good repositories to contribute to, getting a good community to talk about the event, and other stuff.
I contributed to a few repositories with random code.
I was very newbie and didn't know what to do, so there where not much effort.
I just hope these Pull Requests doesn't make me be banned from HacktoberFest 😐.
Day 2 (today)
I'm beginning to make more quality Pull Requests, so I can really begin this HacktoberFest. I firstly contributed to a collection of website components on GitHub, and now I'm working on other contributions. It's my first year, so I'm very nervious of making something wrong.
I'm doing my best. I want to show my real coding skills, by making valuable code for people 🖥️. To be honest, I'm really proud for having joined to HacktoberFest 😄.
I hope everything goes good.
Last words
At this point, I want to thank all people that are helping me. You all are great people 😎.
I also want to recommend any developer searching for a coding community to join to the Devcord Discord community; they are a great community, where you can code along other people, get help, chat about (almost) any topic and other stuff. You can join with this link: https://discord.gg/devcord
Happy hacking, and good luck! ☕
