Hacktoberfest ‘24 Overview

Date:Entire October

Mode: Online

Platform: Github

Hacktoberfest is a month-long event conducted globally to celebrate open source contributions every October. The purpose of organizing this event is to get as many people as possible involved in open source. Hacktoberfest gave open source newbies a hands-on experience and a chance to explore more about contributing to open source projects through GitHub.

The club made sure to provide every detail via mail and WhatsApp to the students. We started by briefing them about Hacktoberfest and then provided guidance about how to move forward, clearing their doubts step by step. The registrations started on 26th September. The students showed great interest in contributing to open source projects.

Mozilla Campus Club’s aim is to familiarize the majority of people with open source, which was partly achieved through this event!
