Event Description

Ennovab presents before you "Introduction to FOSS Hacktoberfest 2020" — brought to you by DigitalOcean in partnership with Dev & Intel — is a month-long celebration of open-source software. The event promises an exhilarating ride to boost anyone's interest in open-source.

  • Get started with open-source with your first pull request.
  • Became more comfortable with Git on GitHub and through the CLI.
  • Interact with developers and open-source contributors.

No contribution is too small — bug fixes and documentation updates are valid ways of participating.
