Happy to have contributors on my beginner-friendly project!
I built a Node/Express/MongoDB app called ValueMax that lets you calculate the cost-per-use of the things you buy.
There are a few open issues in the repo and I'll keep adding more throughout Hacktoberfest. Everything from documentation to new features so hopefully beginner coders can find something to work on.
I'm a relatively new coder myself, so if anyone experienced (or not) wants to take a look through and suggest improvements or even new features, I'd love itβyou can add it as a new issue πππ
Send me a private message when you get a chance. Got a concern that I noticed and want to run by your and not make it public.
Cool, I love consumer-facing OSS.
Very approachable stack too. πππ
I have worked quite a bit with Node/Express/Mongo. I will gladly help if I find the time.
MousePaw Media is looking for C++ and Python developers who are interested in working on unusual, cutting-edge libraries, tools, and games.
Current Projects
Here's a look at a few of our current projects:
PawLIB 1.1: High-performance, memory efficient containers and utilities for the C++ language. We're expanding our testing library (Goldilocks), improving and expanding our data structures (Flex), making message output a delight again (IOChannel), and building a tool for streamlining the design of CLI interfaces (Blueshell).
Right now, we're working on iterators for the Flex data structures, adding a new high-performance, doubly-linked list implementation, and building our collection of sorting algorithms.
Omission is a game written in Python 3. It currently uses the Kivy GUI toolkit, but needs to be re-implemented in Qt5 (PySide2).
DiamondQuest is a brand new Python 3 game, which will use the Qt5 (PySide2) GUI toolkit. We're especially needing someone with pixel-art skills to create the retro-style graphics.
Ratscript: A brand new language which seeks to combine an innovative, obvious syntax with a powerful combination of paradigms. Ratscript is being designed specifically for the next generation of game development. Takes cues from Python and Rust, among others.
Anari: A vector-based animation engine implemented in C++, allowing for memory-efficient interactive animations to be deployed onto old and new hardware alike.
Infiltrator is an upcoming Python 3 party game. We have an earlier version implemented in C++, but we want to recreate it in Python3 and Qt5 (PySide2).
Our Stack
Getting Involved
See something you like? Jump right in! We have a robust development platform, centered around a carefully-honed Phabricator instance.
NOTE: We are currently screening new accounts on Phabricator. We try to approve all new accounts within 24 hours.
For more information, visit mousepawmedia.com/opensource or contact
developers (at) mousepawmedia (dot) com
. You can also ask questions and join the discussion us on the Lobby chatroom on our Phabricator.I have been dabbling with a side project for writing books. I generally treat is as something I practice on, but if some front end dev would like to hop on and improve the look and feel of it a bit, I would be grateful. Backend devs are welcome too, of course, just let me know in advance, so I can give you a task.
And if you want some legacy project to work on, see c-pChart. It is a wrapper for a statistics library wrote with PHP 4, that I maintain for various folks out there that still use it. It is pretty popular, too.
Could you please add a description/ a contribution readme or a
how to run locally
description to the repo please?Added.
I am currently in process of doing a frontend rewrite (single_page branch), so see if there is anything you would like to contribute based on these changes.
Awesome. I'm checking it out now!
Sure, I'll try to add one sometime soon, will let you know :)
Hi Ya'll. Ain't nobody got time for testing!
Tagify
A pet-project of mine that started as a super lightweight & flexible way to add Tags functionality to HTML (since the browser doesn't supports such input type out-of-the-box and with time I've added more and more features and now it's even a React component, but here's where i'm at:
The script has many different options, branching into many different possible scenarios, and every change I make to the code can possibly break one of those possibilities.
I've started writing integration tests (
Jest
+Puppeteer
) but there are a lot of tests that should be written, and this might be a good opportunity for a person who wants to add some integration-testing skills to their CV (or just want to help out of good will)I believe integration testing is better than unit testing because it can cover them also plus test user-interaction (browser events), which is a crucial part of the script, while also superficially testing the visuals (UI)
Thanks!

I made a repository called XbyY, that aims to be a database of commonly faced problems in software development, some of which can be actually easily solved using a library, framework or a software development methodology.
The problems that we will address are typically of the kind that cannot be easily discovered via a google search, either because it's verbose or a newbie like me might not know what to call it and if a thing like it already exists.
Xs are the problems and Ys are simple yet elegant solutions to it. The Ys could be libraries, frameworks or code snippets (not limited to it though). They may also be design patterns, data structures, etc.
It's an easy/medium PR. You can find the repository here. Thanks for reading! :D
Question. How broad or specific can the problems be and also the solutions? For instance a common gotcha in React with state and stuff or something like proper architecture in a Spring app.
Yes that can be included. The problems may range from very broad stuff, like exchanging states like you mentioned, or testing, or an architecture and even narrower ones like how to do form validation easily (problems can actually be argued upon to be narrower or broader ones I believe). But solution has to be very specific so that someone who is having that problem actually finds solution helpful and understandable. It should contain resources so that he/she, in most cases will not have to look beyond these resources when practically approaching the problem. You can also include multiple solutions and tutorials links, etc. to those.
Nexmo is looking for #Hacktoberfest contributions this month! Merge a PR in a Nexmo repo on GitHub this month and they'll send you a limited edition #nextoberfest T-Shirt! nexmo.com/blog/2018/10/09/join-nex...
I have some entry level type issues on my board for github.com/ignoreintuition/v-chart.... Happy to help first timers out with setting a workflow to submit PRs. Also have some issues for API docs if you are anxious about contributing code but you still want to contribute to hacktoberfest. JavaScript, VueJS, and D3.
C&P from last time:
I want to release a new version of my static blog generator in November or something. Possible tasks that need to be done anyway (however, if I need to do them myself, it'll be years...):
src/blogcpp.cpp
) into more smaller files for easier maintenance. (Optimum: Integrate as much as possible intosrc/helpers.h
without breaking that file's portability.)If nobody helps me, the next version will be released without any of those improvements. ;-)
Also, there is still the sufficiently popular ymarks project. It could need more testers. And probably some work on the server part because it is said to crash sometimes - I can't safely reproduce that...
None of those will get you Hacktoberfest credits (because GitHub is entirely uninteresting for me), but I'll like you more if you consider to contribute.

I built a very simplistic honeypot using an esp8266 microcontroller that I programmmed in Micropython. The esp8266 creates a telnet server, and must be port forwarded in order to be accessed by others. When a hacker logs into the server, they get a fake terminal interface, and they have some commands available to them (I tried to make it look like an ancient account processsing terminal from a bank). The original inspiration for this came from the Arduino honeypot found on reddit. This is my first reasonably-sized project, so any suggestions and edits are welcome. Link to the repo here
Happy #hacktoberfest! Weβd love to have contributors to our open source repositories that help our Associative Engine perform the heavy lifting in terms of data manipulation and visualization.
Here are some of our open issues. Most of these are Qlik-centric but a couple are tagged as good first issues where you donβt need to know Qlik. Any help or feedback is much appreciated. Happy hacking!
