This year 2024 on month of October which is a month of open source called hacktober fest started the same as every year and Formbrick again came with good stuff called oss.gg a gamified hackathon.
Where competition is heavy literally heavy there was almost 4500+ players playing. For RAFFLES: To win at least a price since prices were very lucrative :)
And this brick price is very important......
This is enough about my oss.gg now about my stuff.
How I got started.
Created my first-ever onboarding video for papermark while so casing all its functionality.
and the rest of the month passed in solving side quests and a little bit of issues only.
Note: Initially I thought code contributions would overpower me with the heavy points. But it wasn't it. So next time solve the side quest first :)
Overall I improved in writing though (not article but code)
A big Thanks to all the repo maintainers for being so calm and handler this rush. And take things positively.
7 repos were very good where participating was:
- dub.co
- Formbricks
- OpenBB Finance
- Hanko
- Unkey
- Twenty
- Papermark
I tried to maintain consistency across the hackathon CODE + SIDE Quest.
Stress of scoreboard
The leaderboard updates in real time, allowing participants to track their rankings and see their progress. For those with a competitive edge, the dashboard includes links to all code issues and side quests for maximizing points, along with a playful guide on "How to Make 1050 Points in 5 Minutes without Touching Code."
Community
The Discord community serves as an active space for collaboration, advice, and support. It’s an excellent way to connect with others, get real-time assistance, and stay informed on event updates.
Final Thoughts

- oss.gg bot is amazing
