Hacktoberfest Recap

Hi everyone,

I have finally completed my Hacktoberfest journey. It was definitely a lot more stressful than I thought, but I'm glad I was able to complete it on time. The main problem that I had was finding the right issue to work on. It took me way too long to find the right issues that I wanted to work on.

Here are my blogs that document my journey:

I learned a few things on my journey. First, finding the right issue is important. I had to make sure the repo I was working on was documented well and had been updated recently. I also learned to start early, because I ran into a lot of problems that made me unable to continue to work and I had to scrap some issues I worked on. Most repo owners were very helpful and friendly, but I did run into some who did not answer my questions or were not responding at all. I became very familiar with contributing to a repo and I learned how to read documentation better. Finally, I learned to believe in my own skills as a programmer.
