Hacktoberfest 2022

Last year I created a simple web project, added some issues and made it public on GitHub for #hacktoberfest2021. This year I continued it for #hacktoberfest2022 and I received many pull requests from across the world. 🤩

Hacktoberfest is a month-long celebration run by DigitalOcean to celebrate and give back to open-source projects and software. The goal is to encourage everyone in our global community to contribute to open source.

The website is simple and made for beginners to open-source world, which showcases your GitHub profile pic and the commits you did to the repository, on the webpage using #GitHubAPI.

I know it is not much but seeing people fixing bugs, issues and adding new features to another one's project simply shows us how much we can give for the open-source community. 🧑‍💻

If you are new to open-source and feel like you want to contribute,

  • You can visit the webpage in here:
