Hello everyone,
I love participating on Hacktoberfest, and as I once had my first participation at this amazing event, every year is the first time to someone ๐
This year, I decided to make a post helping newcomers to find your project of โค
But there is no fun if is only me recommending the projects...
So, I'm asking you to help me to create an awesome community based hacktoberfest warmup post \o/
The Idea is simple, make you pitch at the comments of this post presenting your recommended opensource project.
UPDATE: You don't need to be the owner of the project, you can pitch for your project of โค๏ธ
The pitch rules:
- Only one project per person
- The project must have a contributing guide
- The project must have beginner friendly issues
- The pitch must be one paragraph only (please try to be brief as a tweet ๐ฆ)
The post will be published 16 September 2019 here at dev.to (linked with this post) with your recommendations, so please post yours until 13 September 2019.
Hope you all enjoy it and Happy Friday ๐

What a great idea! Here is my pitch:
EmojiScreen is a listing of TV shows ๐บ, movies ๐ฝ๏ธand musicals ๐ตdepicted with emojis. This project was built to create a fun, judgement free space for those learning Git and Github to practice! Add a show or movie to contribute.
github.com/brittanyrw/emojiscreen
Awesome, thanks for the help ๐
Late to this discussion, but I'd like to pitch the Accord Project, where I am a maintainer. I am taking the lead on trying to get participation this Hacktoberfest, and have done a lot of work to parse out as many beginner-friendly issues as I can in our projects.
Some brief information on the Accord Project: It is an ecosystem to build smart agreements and documents on a technology neutral platform, and tools for smart legal contracts.
We have an event page for our participation in Hacktoberfest here.
Excellent, I'll add to the post. Thank you for contributing :)
I am working on an open source voice assistant and would love help, check out this post

Nice project, and congrats for the post!
Thanks! really appreciate the positive feedback.
I don't have any OS projects of my own to recommend but I think #1 on your list needs to be this very site!
It blows my mind how many people don't know that dev.to is Open Source.
Definitely, dev.to is a fantastic add to the dev community.
