OneDevMinute

🙌 As a full-time #OpenSourcerer — October is one of my favorite months. And it's October already. Today's #OneDevMinute is about #Hacktoberfest — it's a month-long online event where you signup at GitHub.com and Hacktoberfest to celebrate Open Source by contributing at least five times between Oct 1-31.

✅ Good folks from DigitalOcean, GitHub, and Twilio will track your open source contributions and upon five successful GitHub pull-requests — you'll receive swag items like a limited edition T-Shirt, stickers, and maybe a few discount codes.

😇 Open source is for everyone, it's not just code — developers, designers, even marketers, and content writers can participate. Improve an open source project's documentation, refactor code, gift that project a new logo design — just participate and celebrate open source in October.

# Step #0: Create an account on GitHub.com (Also signup at https://hacktoberfest.digitalocean.com/).
# Step #1: Fork any open source GitHub repo.
# Step #2: Clone that repo in your local PC.
git clone https://github.com/AhmadAwais/Hacktoberfest

# Step #3: Make changes and commit/push these changes.
git add .
git commit -m "📦 NEW: Resource for learning Git"
git push

# Step #4: Go to your fork, click open `Pull Request` link and create a PR.
