Hey there,&lt;br&gt;
This is girl Maan and I am a 3rd-year student pursuing computer engineering at Gujarat Technological University. My overall CGPA through all semester is 9.37.&lt;br&gt;
I am a passionate coder. My area of interest is Web development, UX/UI designs, Salesforce Dev-Admin, Data Science till now. By the way, if you're reading the post you can ask for help if you need it in the above areas.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
  
  
  My Introto DEV
&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;lt;!-- Are you brand new to open source? What about coding in general? --&amp;gt;Tell us about how you got here →&lt;br&gt;
I think coding is the ability to express ourselves in the technical aspects to make understand the computer.&lt;br&gt;
When I completed my Hacktober fest challenge I got to know about the DEV community only from there. I have joined this community because I wanted to expand my knowledge of technology as well as business aspects.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
  
  
  Progress
&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I have only heard about open source contribution and have never tried even once but Hacktoberfest helped me a lot to do this. I was completely new in these open source and one day a got to know about Hacktober fest through one of the youtube videos and I decided to overcome my open-source fear&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
  
  
  Contributions
&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I am very thankful to the project maintainer who helped me very much to explore git and GitHub and finally my pull requests get verified by Hacktoberfest. I have learned a lot of new things here and It was very exciting.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Since I was new in the open-source world I had chosen simple repo in which we have to add different solutions of different languages of data structure and algorithm but code should include maximum function as possible.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
  
  
  Reflections
&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Of course, I will participate again in Hacktoberfest 2021. I have learned many things like how to collaborate with the team in open source and many more. My next step in open source is GSoC.&lt;/p&gt;
