To all my readers out here I have an interesting thing to share with you. Hint: That is about a Hackathon. Keep reading to know more
A hackathon might be an alternative for you if you are a computer science student or an upcoming developer. An online or physical hackathon allows you to develop your coding skills, gain experience working with developers, develop your resume, and meet peers in your field.
If you are looking for one such hackathon I can recommend Hack This Fall 2.0. It is happening between 22nd October to 24th October. For this season, they are taking this to a level higher with a 48 Hours Virtual Hackathon; where they are aiming to promote hackers and help them nurture their new ideas and prototypes in various domains. Their motto is also to involve more beginner hackers and support everyone to solve the shared problems of our society, to bring a change in a positive way.
If you want to register for this wonderful hackathon you can do it here and do not forgot to use my referral code: HTFHE060
You can now extend your support by buying me a Coffee.😊👇

I have tried many themes and my all time favourite theme to work with in the VS Code is Shades of Purple because it was suggested by my supervisor and till now I am using the same one.
So in my case it is the Shades of the Purple on the Top <3
To be honest I liked the github theme more than the 10 mentioned...
