This repository contains a record of all low-code contributions made during the Hacktoberfest event.
Hacktoberfest
is a celebration of Open Source. It is a virtual event organized by DigitalOcean and its partners throughout October. It is aimed toward open source and introducing it to as many developers as possible. Read more about the event from here.
Until last year, hacktoberfest contributions were only valid for coding or maintaining a project. Since this year, Hacktoberfest has also been allowing low-code
and no-code
contributions.
The table below explains the types of no-code/low-code contributions that are accepted:
Contribution Type | Low-code | No-code |
---|---|---|
Writing | Technical Documentation | Translating, Copy editing |
Design | Testing | UX Testing, Graphics design, video production |
Advocacy | Talks, presentations, blogs, podcasts, case studies | social media blog posts |
We at Showwcase encourage every developer to contribute to Open Source through Hacktoberfest. We are excited to participate in the event to encourage open-source enthusiasts to make low-code
contributions with content creation.
