About💬

  • 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.

✨No contribution is too small✨

Steps and Rewards🎁

  • 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)

What to do??💪

  • 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.

Standards💻

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.
