vue3 frontend developmentHacktoberfest 2017 is upon us and now is a great opportunity to contribute to open source and the community as a whole. At RIMdev we’ve made it easy to get into open source:
What do you need to know?
Hacktoberfest is open to everyone in our global community! Pull requests can be made in any GitHub-hosted repositories/projects. You can sign up anytime between October 1 and October 31. Rules To get a shirt, you must make four pull requests between October 1–31 in any timezone. Pull requests can be to any public repo on GitHub, not just the ones we’ve highlighted. The pull request must contains commits you made yourself. Pull requests reported by maintainers as spam or that are automated will be marked as invalid and won’t count towards the shirt.
As a RIMdev team member, you can easily meet the requirements of Hacktoberfest, make the community better, and get a cool T-Shirt. Your friends will be so jealous for your new swag.
Go forth and hack!
