Open source contributions are a great idea, I think. I find it really daunting to jump in and contribute to a large, established project, but a lot of them make the process really easy. Especially around this time of year, with Hacktoberfest going on.

I guess the downside is that with open source contributions, especially if you're new to the project, you may find yourself mainly working on issues that you are comfortable with, rather than the ones that would really stretch you. That's been my experience, at least, but perhaps it's time to push the boat out a bit.

Thanks for sharing!
