Hi Hacktoberfest fans 👋!

I'm one of the maintainers of Sofie - an Open Source TV Studio Automation system.

We're always eager to welcome contributors that would like to work with us on making video content producers' lives easier as well as supporting more hardware. If you are into video production or video streaming - we might just be the project for you. Sofie is built in TypeScript, with the Core application/GUI using Meteor as a framework.
