about my experience with Hacktoberfest

who am I ? and why i participated ?

My name is Syrine Hammami , I am a Computer Science engineering student from Tunisia.
I participated in Hacktoberfest because i wanted to improve my programming skills and learn new things.

Background

I am new to open source coding and the hacktoberfest helped me learn more about it . I have some basic knowledge in python , css, Js as a computer science student but i would love to learn more in the future that's why when i heard about hacktoberfest on social media (facebook) i decided to join.

Progress

At first it was a little hard for me as i was new in the open source coding but then thanks to the detailed video tutorial and the help of the community i was able to finish it.

Contributions

My contribution was to a "learn python" project , i added more lessons that didn't exist already . I chose this project to help other people learn python and make it easier for them . Because i believe that one should always give back to the community.

Reflections

Hacktoberfest was an amazing experience and i learned a lot thanks to it , i am glad that i participated and i will surely participate next year too. If you are reading this and having participated in the hacktoberfest this year i highly recommend you do it next year .. and i promise you won't regret it !
