Virtual Coffee Hacktoberfest 2022 Roundup

Another Hacktoberfest has come and gone!

This was Virtual Coffee's third Hacktoberfest (🤯) and it was another great one! Our members knocked it out of the park as usual, and we wanted to take a moment to celebrate!

Our Virtual Coffee Hacktoberfest Initiative (VCHI) is an annual event where our members come together to help each other contribute to Open Source and hopefully complete Digital Ocean's Hacktoberfest Challenge. Some of our members are maintainers of their own repos, some sign up as mentors for members who are new to open source, and some sign up just to get Hacktoberfesting (or Hacktoberfestering if you're Dan)!

This year we had an awesome team of volunteers helping the maintainers out running things - so a very special ✨ thank you ✨ to Dominic Duffin, Enrico La Cava, Joe Karow, Lucia Cerchie, Nick Taylor. And one more HUGE shoutout to Drew Clements who designed our very first Virtual Coffee Hacktoberfest image--used as the cover image here.

We kicked off the month with three great Hacktoberfest/Open Source videos and a podcast episode with our maintainers:

We had 56 members sign up as contributors, repository maintainers, and mentors. Here are some cool stats and shoutouts from VCHI 2022:

Mentors:

Our mentors are one of the biggest parts of what we do at VC for Hacktoberfest. They each have one or more mentees and spend the month helping people start their open source journey.

✨ Thank you ✨ to our amazing mentors:

Adam Abundis
Alex Curtis-Slep
Amy Shackles
BekahHW
Brian Meeker
Dan Ott
David Alpert
Joern Bernhardt
Kirk Shillingford
Meg Gutshall
Nick Taylor
Raynald Mirville
Skyler Murray

Maintainers:

Some of our members signed up as open source maintainers - these members (and all of the Hacktoberfest maintainers) spend a lot of time on their projects behind the scenes, preparing their repositories and helping contributors be successful. For the 8 repos our participating members are maintaining, they merged 642 pull requests from 262 unique contributors 🤯🤯🤯.

✨ Thank you ✨ to our awesome maintainers:

VirtualCoffee.io:

Every year for Hacktoberfest, we prepare a special issue that members can contribute to to get them started towards Hacktoberfest. We also try to create a number of other issues like new features, bug fixes, and general improvements throughout the month.

On the VirtualCoffee.io repo in the month of October: 32 members made 65 pull requests: 34 of which were member profile additions/updates, while 31 were new features or other improvements to the site.

Amazing!

Contributions:

Of the 52 members that signed up, 36 members had at least one accepted pull request in a repository participating in Hacktoberfest, and we collectively created 132 pull requests across 31 repositories in the month of October.

This is incredible. We are so proud of everyone who contributed, whether this is their first time in open source or they've been keeping all their squares green for years.

We were able to tally up everyone's contributions - here are all of the Hacktoberfest pull requests that our members made this month:
