Im trying to update 7 different umbraco websites from version 12 to 13. This in it's own is rather simple, but when i also need to do a ton of data conversion beforehand, and the fact that im not allowed to do everything locally, it's get pretty hefty. Every attempt on doing the conversion can cause a breaking change in the database, and when this has to be done on live servers that is part of the our countries infrastucture... it's just a challenge, lets just leave it at that.

This is a great weekly series, and it's great to see it continued! I'm also a big fan of Hacktoberfest, it's a great opportunity to give back to the open source community.

This week, I'm focusing on finishing up a big project for work, so I'm hoping to have some extra time to contribute to a few open source projects. I'm also really excited to see how many people participate in Hacktoberfest this year!

Do you have any tips for finding a good open source project to contribute to?

I'd say read through some of OpenSauced's posts. One of the things I think is missing from the official Hacktoberfest page is a way to sort repos by industry.

This week, focus on increasing productivity by refining teaching strategies, ensuring student engagement, and preparing lesson plans in advance. Prioritize any administrative tasks for the academy, such as organizing schedules or addressing curriculum updates.
