My first Hacktoberfest, 2 PR merged so far (one it's from September 30, didn't wait until the next day to send it), so I am quite happy.

Since bigger projects have a lot of attention I'm focusing on smaller projects with the hacktoberfest label.

It feels really good, I think I may continue contributing after this, there is much to do, from test coverage, help with the Docs, etc! this is madness!

This is a great idea. I think I'll find some smaller OSS with test needs.

This will be my first Hacktoberfest and I was having quite a bit of anxiety trying to pick something to work on.

But I'm gonna try sifting through stuff tonight and try to find some way to contribute to something!

I made a PR to facebook, they were super nice and helpful. Just pull the trigger most of the OSS community is ultra-supportive if they aren't go to a project with a better community 😁 best of luck buddy 🤩

ShowPath - 👨‍💻Learning Path for Programmers

ShowPath helps beginners to find basic information/roadmap to be a developer using a tree view. User can click on the language to get more details.

And I am working on a feature that will help users to compare programming language and learn the basics.

Contributions are required to complete the roadmap and language details.

Going good! I made 4 PRs and thought of continuing but then I noticed that my 5th PR was not being tracked. I wanted to have more PRs because I'm afraid that there's a chance the repo that I made a PR may be marked as a bad repo and my contribution won't get counted. Oh well. I guess I'll have to wait for 7 days. It is very fun, though! Been a developer for so long but it's my first time joining an event like this.
