About Celebration of Open Source

Many of the software we use today are made using open source technologies. Learn about open source and how you can contribute to your favorite libraries and software using Git and GitHub. Also, we'll be interviewing the winners of the recently concluded NASA Space Apps Challenge 2020 on how open source software helped them develop their winning ideas.

About Hacktoberfest

Hacktoberfest — brought to you by DigitalOcean in partnership with Dev & Intel — is a month-long celebration of open source software. Maintainers are invited to guide would-be contributors towards issues that will help move the project forward, and contributors get the opportunity to give back to both projects they like and others they've just discovered. No contribution is too small — bug fixes and documentation updates are valid ways of participating.

Can't make it to this online meetup? Hacktoberfest is virtual and open to participants from around the globe. Sign up to participate today.
