This is a submission for the 2024 Hacktoberfest Writing challenge: Contributor Experience
It has been a great honour to be a part of the Hacktoberfest 2024 journey as a contributor. Starting from the hype to the collaborations and friendly environment, it was truly a phenomenal experience!
This was my first time participating in a Hacktoberfest event, and I'm really grateful to all individuals who helped me with my queries whenever I asked.
I've picked up certain skills, and made a few mistakes on the way. After all mistakes are a big part of your journey to keep moving forward. and I'd like to advise all readers that don't be afraid from participating in this event due to the fear of mistakes, it's natural and keeps you going as long as you learn from them!
The open-source based knowledge that I've gained from them and by watching the community closely, can enable me to help out freshers next year onwards as well, and I'm looking forward to it.
Here are some of the projects that I worked on, through which I got my 4 PRs merged, and thereby completing Hacktoberfest 2024 successfully!
-
Password Manager
- Based on a GUI
-
NexaSite
- Based on a company's website
-
Harem-No-Jutsu
- Based on a Discord bot
I'm looking forward to participating in Hacktoberfest 2025 next year, and would like to encourage all readers to do the same. Come, join the open-source movement together with me! Cheers!
