Why to develop another Hacktoberfest Checker, when there are pre-existing checkers already?

Well, I developed this another, but not alike, hacktoberfest checker because Hacktoberfest's policy and guidlines of contribution has recently been changed.

What's new in Update?

According to the new policy & update, Hacktoberfest is now officially opt-in only for projects and maintainers, which mean only the PRs specified as contribution toward Hacktoberfest will only be counted as valid.

How to know whether a Pull Request is valid or not?

This question is the answer of creation of Hacktoberfest-Checker. A PR will be counted as invalid and the user will get the tee/tshirt only when:

Submitted during the month of October
Submitted in a public repo
The PR is labelled as hacktoberfest-accepted by a maintainer OR ubmitted in a repo with the acktoberfest topic
The PR is merged OR the PR has been approved
