Hacktoberfest 2020 — Who's looking for contributors?

Update 10/2/20: If you’d like your project to be eligible for Hacktoberfest contributions, you must classify it as a Hacktoberfest Project.

---

Hacktoberfest 2020 is coming up on October 1st!

Starting now through the end of Hacktoberfest, maintainers can drop links to/information on their projects in the comments below. The goal? To find helpful contributors seeking projects to improve in the name of Hacktoberfest!

Participants can use this thread as a reference for projects that are actively seeking contributions 🎉

P.S. Maintainers: Wondering how you can get your repos in tip-top shape for contributors? Take a look at this article.

P.P.S. If you'd like to find a way to lend your expertise to this year's group of open source newbies participating in Hacktoberfest, Raise.dev's Hacktoberfest Helpdesk is the perfect opportunity! You can volunteer for paired programming and Q&A sessions via Twitch and more! A few of the DEV/Forem team will be helping out at this helpdesk — hope to see you there!

For anyone new to development or looking to help highlight marginalized figures in Computer Science, I’m still looking for contributors to help flesh out the Compuneers repo, most urgently writing posts about women/LGBT+/BIPOC pioneers from the history of CS. There’s a list already started to choose from, documentation for the whole process, and other issues to work on for the project as well. I’d love a helping hand!

Mercury

Mercury is a customisable web app that uses the Oxford Dictionaries API to translate words to English. You enter a word in your language, and are shown a list of their English counterparts and how to pronounce them, together with examples to show how to use the words in English sentences.
