πŸš€ Starting My Hacktoberfest 2026 Journey

Hacktoberfest: Open Source Reflections

πŸŽƒ Hacktoberfest 2026 β€” Let’s Begin! πŸš€

This year, I’m taking on Hacktoberfest for the first time β€” and it’s a little different from the Hacktoberfest I’ve heard about before.

2026 is all about learning, experimenting, and building with open-source AI and open-weight models. πŸ€–

So I’m starting my journey by taking on the challenges, exploring new AI tools, joining the community, and building things along the way.

My goals for this Hacktoberfest:

πŸ”Ή Complete the challenges

πŸ”Ή Learn more about open-source AI

πŸ”Ή Experiment with open-weight models

πŸ”Ή Build and share projects

πŸ”Ή Learn from the developer community

πŸ”Ή Step outside my comfort zone

I’m not sure how far I’ll get, but I’m excited to document the journey and see what I can build. πŸ’»πŸ”₯
