Added support for custom data-attributes in Bootstrap Multiselect: github.com/davidstutz/bootstrap-mu...

Then closed it shortly after because I didn't understand upstream sources, then created a new PR with a clean fork. Good times 😂

My first PR was pretty ridiculous. I just added alt tags and labels to all the images on a website for an open source project. Funny thing was that the first pr for some reason messed up and didn't have like more than half of the code for the project. At least I realized my mistake and quickly canceled my first PR and re-did it correctly. To Say I was humbled was an understatement.

I fixed some bugs in a minecraft mod. They were things, I had struggled with myself and it was nice to be able to put that knowledge into good use.

Mine was typescript type definitions for jquery.nicescroll which I've added a couple of months ago. On my work front-end, I've started a migration to typescript (I promise to deliver an article about it one day) and I've needed those type definitions badly so I've decided to try myself as open source contributor.

Added lookup tables to color brain segmentation images based on their labels on a medical image visualizer. Did quite the mess with that but managed to get it working in the end...

Adding other hashing algo options for Play Framework v1.

Was unfamiliar with git and GitHub, and uncomfortable with Java (a full time C# dev at the time).

Really estatic when the PR was merged 😁
