Hacktoberfest | HnCC, BIT Sindri

Event Description

Hacktoberfest — brought to you by DigitalOcean in partnership with Dev & Intel — is a month-long celebration of open source software. No contribution is too small — bug fixes and documentation updates are valid ways of participating.

We start off with introductions and some workshops on Day 1 with the motto of let's git it.
The main attraction of our meetup is our guest speaker Simon Redman. He is an active maintainer in The KDE Community and has mentored students in Google Summer of Code. It will be interesting to hear what he has to say on open-source.

Hacktoberfest is virtual and open to participants from around the globe. Sign up to participate today.
