Welcome to Hacktoberfest 2024

[naomi-lgbt]

What is Hacktoberfest?

Hacktoberfest is a month-long celebration of open source. Projects, such as freeCodeCamp, can opt-in to participate. When they have done so, contributors (just like you!) can make pull requests to the project that are eligible for the event.

Contributors who have made four eligible pull requests (PRs which receive an "approve" review or are merged into the default branch) can earn a digital badge through Holopin - this is customisable and evolves over time.

Note

Contributors who have a PR merged for this issue may also reach out to Naomi on Discord to claim a special Hacktoberfest 2024 role.

How to Participate

We are in the process of overhauling our interactive curriculum. This change will include new lesson formats such as videos, lectures, interactive labs and workshops, and more.

Part of this initiative requires creating knowledge comprehension quizzes. We are asking contributors to participate in Hacktoberfest by making pull requests to create the content for these quizzes.

We need pull requests for each of the following quizzes.

Important

To allow as many contributors to participate as possible, we kindly ask that:

• Each pull request create exactly one (1) quiz
• Each contributor create no more than one pull request for this issue

How to Write a Quiz

All quizzes can be found in the new front-end-development directory.

A quiz is contained in a single markdown file, such as the Design Fundamentals quiz.

These markdown files use a template:

---
id: id-goes-here
title: Semantic HTML Quiz
challengeType: 8
dashedName: semantic-html-quiz
---

# --description--

Answer all of the questions below correctly to pass the quiz.

# --quizzes--

## --quiz--

### --question--

#### --text--

Placeholder question

#### --distractors--

Placeholder distractor 1

---

Placeholder distractor 2

---

Placeholder distractor 3

#### --answer--

Placeholder answer

Quizzes are all multiple choice. The "distractors" are incorrect answers to the question. You may list the distractors in any order. The --answer-- should be the answer which is correct.

A quiz should have a total of 20 questions related to the topic. We will attempt to provide a list of sub-topics to choose from before the event starts.

Examples

Here is an example of what a completed quiz file should look like: https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/freeCodeCamp/blob/main/curriculum/challenges/english/25-front-end-development/quiz-basic-html/66df3b712c41c499e9d31e5b.md

Here is an example of a pull request which follows our contributing guidelines might look like: #56417

Plagiarism and AI-generated Content

Do NOT copy questions directly from other sources, even if paraphrased. Questions you submit should be your own creations. This includes using generative AI to create questions - please do NOT use AI (ChatGPT, Claude, etc) to create questions.
