Hi there,
Every year, hundreds of thousands of developers like yourself take on the challenge and join Hacktoberfest. This is a time to contribute to open source, improve your skills, and build greater technology in the process. Thanks to your dedication in 2019, 483,127 pull requests were opened, and 61,871 people completed the challenge.
From your first to your fiftieth (and beyond) pull request, we’re here to support your learning journey. That’s why we’ve created Preptember, where we focus on providing resources, tools, and love to our Hacktoberfest community. All of September is dedicated to learning and sharing knowledge in preparation for October.
Start sharpening your hacking skills with these resources:
- Hacktoberfest’s quality standards
- How to write your first pull request
- How to create a good commit message
- Beginner resources for first-timers
You’re not alone in your learning journey! Join the Hacktoberfest Discord channel to speak with other participants and share projects you’re passionate about.
