[queenofcorgis]

A toast to all of you who helped make our community a helpful, vibrant, and fun place to discuss all things GitHub in 2022 - we couldn’t have done it without you. This is my last check-in for the year so cozy up!

🌟Community Superstars: A round of applause for these community citizens 👏

• @mohamedzhioua - For a great and robust answer to the difference between SSH keys and deploy keys! And then continuing to help ♥
• @MitkoVtori & @DSDmark - Loved both of their responses for the user asking how to create a profile ReadME - @MitkoVtori gave the steps and @DSDmark followed up with a doc 📃 - two heads are better than one!
• @DianVK - Wanted to move two repositories into another one and gave an in-depth view of their thought process so other members could help. Thank you!

📚 Rousing Reads: GitHub blog goodies 🍭

• Release Radar October 2022 Edition: While this may be delayed, we wanted to take a moment to celebrate those that did release during Hacktoberfest 👻. Read up on these projects, learn about their breaking changes, and view some fantastic statistics from the open source community from @mishmanners.
• Hello from GitHub’s new Chief Product Officer: We’re introducing our new Chief Product officer, @shainbal, get to know her in her blog post. 👷
• ICYMI: A look back at GitHub Universe 2022 - One last Universe post from us to close out the year 🪐. @lclindeman gets you caught up on everything we announced and shares what else happened during this year’s GitHub Universe conference that took place November 9-10.

✨ Start the new year, a little less new to GitHub: Brush up on your skills or learn something new before 2022 ends!

• How to choose (and contribute to) your first open source project: The fun of open source is contributing to others, this collection has impactful projects for you to participate in 💃!
• How I Got Started with GitHub: Read about how I learned GitHub and the resources I used in my blog.
• Learn how to use GitHub with our checklist: No one knows better than us how much there is to learn in GitHub so we were inspired to create a new user checklist to help you get the hang of things and begin learning. New user or looking to refine the basics? Begin working on our checklist ✅!

Cheers to a great year - may 2023 bring more solutions, projects, and releases our way. See you then 🎉.
