How to contribute to xLayers this hacktoberfest

The Hacktoberfest 2019 is here. :D

This event is organized by digitalocean every year in October, to celebrate the open-source community and their contributions. It not only promotes the idea of open-source but also provides a great opportunity for developers across the world, to make contributions to ANY open source project.

If you have never made any open source contribution but are willing to, then this is the best opportunity for you to begin with and learn.

Don't know how to make PR to any open source project? Well, you got to read this:

Demystifying Open Source Contributions

In order to keep the momentum of open source, we, the xLayerians also invite your contributions.

What is xLayers?

xLayers is a community driven open source project which is a perfect companion for designers who want to see their design running ;)

What does xLayers do?

1. Convert your sketch prototype into code of any framework.
2. Display your design directly on the web.
3. 3D rotation, preview mode and zooming support
4. Display metadata of your design such as size, position, layout structure, etc. on the page.
5. Edit, run and deploy the generated code directly from your browser. Thanks to stackblitz :)
6. Download generated code as a zip file.
