A community-driven initiative built & maintained by the community for the community during Hacktoberfest 🔥
This repository is an initiative that aims to help beginners kickstart their open-source journey and successfully submit their first pull request (PR) for Hacktoberfest. It is also a safe space for everyone regardless of their skill level and we welcome participants from all around the world with different experiences, unique perspectives, and great ideas. |
