Initially it took time, but later on it was quite smooth and challenging. I was highly excited on the outcome. I have seen lots of repos where I couldn't even run the application because of missing classes or methods. I had to contribute on new feature and also the existing bug.</p> <h3> Growth </h3> <p>Hacktoberfest is a great way of encouraging developers. I just needed some push from others to do something and here is the hacktoberfest for that. Initially I was little busy, I started late but when I started contributing it was not restrict to 4 PRs, I just continued to contribute on multiple repo's irrespective of challenges. It helped a lot in understanding others code and way of practicing clean code.</p> hack23contributor hacktoberfest23 hacktoberfest Binay Tripathy Tue, 31 Oct 2023 14:15:09 +0000 https://dev.to/binaytripathy/hacktoberfest23-pledge-4f5j https://dev.to/binaytripathy/hacktoberfest23-pledge-4f5j <p>Intro<br> Hi, this is Binay Tripathy. This is my first time at dev.to and hacktoberfest both. I joined hacktoberfest this year since I needed an opening to join open source community and it helped greatly.</p> <p>Background<br> I have been mild coding since few years but never got around to getting to know a language from inside out or a domain. But I enjoy doing it.</p> <p>Pledge<br> MY goal is to contribute 4 good PR's during October and hoping for a smooth journey contributing in open source.</p> hacktoberfest23 hacktoberfest
