Manav Rachna University Hacktober Fest 2021
- Manav Rachna University hosting an online event Project MRU (Hacktoberfest 2021) 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.
- Step1: Sign up on the Hacktoberfest. To qualify for the official limited edition Hacktoberfest shirt**, you must register and make four pull requests between October 1-31.
- Step2: After the first step, join our Discord Server for further event details..
- Connect with other Hacktoberfest participants by using @DigitalOcean, @hacktoberfest, #hacktoberfest on your social media platform of choice. ** this Repo is just for educational purpose (your PR wont be valid for Hacktoberfest swag)
- To earn your Hacktoberfest tee or tree reward, you must register and make four valid pull requests (PRs) between October 1-31 (in any time zone).
- PRs can be made to any public repo on GitHub, not only the ones with issues labeled Hacktoberfest.
- If a maintainer reports your pull request as spam or behavior not in line with the project’s code of conduct, you will be ineligible to participate.
Here are 3 quick and painless ways to contribute to this project:
- Add your name to the
CONTRIBUTORS.mdfile (DONT REPLACE OTHER NAME AND INFO) - Add a profile page to the
profilesdirectory - Create a simple "Hello, World" script in a language of your choice
Choose one or all 3, make a pull request for your work and wait for it to be merged!
- Fork this repository (Click the Fork button in the top right of this page, click your Profile Image)
- Clone your fork down to your local machine
git clone https://github.com/your-username/ProjectMRU.git- Create a branch
git checkout -b branch-name- Make your changes (choose from any task below)
- Commit and push

git commit -m 'Commit message'
git push origin branch-name- Create a new pull request from your forked repository (Click the
New Pull Requestbutton located at the top of your repo) - Wait for your PR review and merge approval!

(all three tasks need to be done)
Add your name to the CONTRIBUTORS.md file using the below convention:
##### Name: [YOUR NAME](GitHub link)
- Place: City, State, Country
- Bio: Who are you?
- GitHub: [GitHub account name](GitHub link)
- LinkedIn: [LinkedIn name](LinkedIn link)Add a Your_Name.md file to the Profiles directory. Use any combination of content and Markdown you'd like. Here is an example:
# Your Name
### Location
Your City/Country
### Academics
Your School
### Interests
- Some Things You Like
### Projects
- [My Project](GitHub Link) Short Description
### Profile Link
[Your Name](GitHub Link)Add a hello_world_yourusername.xx script to the Scripts directory in any language of your choice! Here is an example:
// LANGUAGE: Python
// AUTHOR: c0sm0s
// GITHUB: https://github.com/minnonymous
print('Hello, python!')Name the file hello_world_yourusername.xx. e.g., hello_world_minnonymous.py
In line with Hacktoberfest value #2 (Quantity is fun, quality is key), we have provided examples of pull requests that we consider to be low-quality contributions (which we discourage).
- Pull requests that are automated (e.g. scripted opening pull requests to remove whitespace/fix typos/optimize images).
- Pull requests that are disruptive (e.g. taking someone else's branch/commits and making a pull request).
- Pull requests that are regarded by a project maintainer as a hindrance vs. helping.
Something that's clearly an attempt to simply +1 your pull request count for October. Last but not least, one pull request to fix a typo is fine, but 5 pull requests to remove a stray whitespace is not.
