Hacktoberfest has become a staple in open source. It's an annual tradition loved by many (and it's not for everyone, that's fine).
But here is the deal:
- Everyone is welcome
- Quantity is fun, but quality is key
- Short-term action, Long-term impact
These are values we can get behind at DEV.
In terms of the challenge itself, follow the rules, and make enough valid pull requests this month, and claim some really fun and unique prizes from DigitalOcean.
