My Hacktoberfest Pledge

About Me

Hi there! I'm Chrissy, a lover of open source, technical writing, and the Oxford Comma! :) I also moderate and review the content here on Dev.to, so if you see a heart emoji, that's from me! ;)

Background

This year will be my first time doing Hacktoberfest! :) I've been contributing to open source projects for a couple of months now and decided to participate in this event after seeing so many posts about it on X and a couple of coding communities I belong to. If you want to learn more about my journey, check out my posts on Hashnode

Pledge

As a contributor, my goal for Hacktoberefest is to have fun and find interesting projects. As a maintainer for LinksHub and a Triage team member at OpenSauced, I want to work on ways to make new contributors feel less intimidated about open source projects.
