Getting Over Hacktoberfest 2020

Hacktoberfest: Contribution Chronicles

My First Open Source Contribution: Hacktoberfest 2020

My name is Aman Kumar Dewangan, pursuing B.Tech in Electrical Engineering from the National Institute of Technology Raipur. I am a proficient IoT developer, Electronics Enthusiast, Frontend Developer, and Begineer in Cloud Engineering.

Background

I took CSE as my extra subject in Class 12th, hence I have a pretty good knowledge of coding in C++. With the time I learnt the implementation of C++ in Arduino and choose my Area of Intrest as IoT. I further learnt Python during my initial days of college and spent a significant time understanding the concepts of Machine Learning. As time spent I decided to move to Frontend Development and still learning many things related to it. I am familiar with many programming languages like C, C++, Java, Python, JavaScript etc... (!Alert: HTML and CSS are not programming languages.).

Progress

As I have recently learnt JavaScript and I realised that it is pretty much different from other languages and there is no textual content available on the Internet to explain it easily, so I wrote articles on JavaScript and how learning Javascript can actually become fun.

Contributions

  1. Adding articles on JavaScript
  2. Pulse Oximeter for Calidad Healthcare

Reflections

It was really enjoying and informational, we get to learn from each other through interaction and learn what mistakes we possibly make while developing something. If possible, I surely wish to participate in it next year as well.
