Joy Of Hacktoberfest and Contribution to Open Source

I am writing this for sharing my experience with my very first hacktoberfest event which I successfully completed with 4 PRs.

Also I am new to dev community and in development sector. When I came to know about hacktoberfest event it seemed me very interesting and exciting. This was also a very good opportunity to learn Github, contributing to Open Source and generating more interest as a developer and a coder.

It was first time I get to know about contribution in open source.
For me it went like a festival of celebration of what I learnt till now in coding world. Coding for me is like mind game for me the more you practice the better you are.

I successfully completed my hacktoberfest journey of this year (2020) and it was awesome, informative and learnt a lot from it.

Here are the links of my contributed projects :

1) https://github.com/arjun-computer-geek/pubgwarfare.github.io/pull/3
2) https://github.com/deginner/website/pull/71
3) https://github.com/sidanand67/Tribute-Page/pull/13
4) https://github.com/kuscoders/simple-landingpage/pull/5

As these projects were related with web development so I choosed these projects.

Hacktoberfest 2020 experience was amazing . I learnt how to fork the project and how to make significant change or adding some fresh new stunning ideas in already made projects. And I will love to participate in next year also because as I said it felt like a festival of developers for me :) .For me its like one more festival added in these days like Diwali so of course I'll contribute next year also.

Thank you Hacktoberfest and Digital Ocean for a wonderful experience .
