Gather Companies Offering Swag for Hacktoberfest 2019 #44

Closed crweiner closed 4 years ago

crweiner commented 5 years ago

Hello all!

With Hacktoberfest 2019 right around the corner, is anyone yet aware of companies committed to offering swag?

You can review the 2018 branch here to see the list of companies that participated last year. I've heard back from only one of them with a commitment to sponsor swag again this year.

If you hear of a swag opportunity on the horizon for 2019, let us know by posting here.

However, don't submit a Pull Request or a new Issue yet until Hacktoberfest begins and you've signed up on the DigitalOcean website You can submit your PRs now if you wish to add companies to the list before Hacktoberfest officially begins, but keep in mind that any PRs you make before you register for Hacktoberfest (or before Oct 1st) won't count toward the official Hacktoberfest swag.

I just want to gather things in one place until Hacktoberfest 2019 begins.

Once the most festive of holidays does start, then please submit your PRs and Issues to add companies to the list, and be sure to read the Contributing guidelines! I want as many people to get their swag as possible!

LBRY has also made their intentions to offer a swag t-shirt via Twitter here and here

crweiner commented 4 years ago

OpenEBS has also stated that they'll be offering swag via Twitter, specifically a t-shirt for every successful merged PR in any of the OpenEBS Repos with other grand prizes and giveaways to be announced later.

Auth0 and Nexmo are not offering their own swag for Hacktoberfest this year per Twitter here and here

https://circleci-public.github.io/hacktoberfest/#/ Circle CI will be offering their swags

crweiner commented 4 years ago

Sweet! Thanks @gagandeepp!! That shirt looks mighty fine. :nerd_face:

crweiner commented 4 years ago

Hi @gagandeepp, I changed my mind about holding off on adding companies to the list until Hacktoberfest begins because I'd like to hit the ground running with something workable on day 1. I merged CircleCI's involvement in #46 and I'd highly encourage you to add other companies to the list or fix the markdown lint errors to appease the bots so long as you know that any PRs you submit before signing up for Hacktoberfest won't count towards the official swag.

Appwrite was added to the swag list in PR #47 by one of the developers! It's great to see new companies joining in!

Humm...it's not clear if they are offering their own unique swag or just stating that you can earn the main DigitalOcean/Dev.to Hacktoberfest shirt. Do you have any clarification or other info to share?

It seems like Umbraco will be offering their own swag for Hacktoberfest 2019 according to a sneak peek this blog post. However, one of the Umbraco devs doesn't seem to like this little project all that much and requested on Twitter here and here to not be added to the list...

So....yeah.... I don't know what to do besides not merge a PR adding them here. Surely they'll be added to other websites and blogs that track Hacktoberfest swag offerings.

Wanting to pull in @benbarth and @swapagarwal to see if they've had a company say this before and what they plan on doing with their own lists with regards to Umbraco....

benbarth commented 4 years ago

Thanks for the heads up @crweiner. I've never seen this before. I've removed Umbraco from my list and added a comment to the Umbraco 2019 ticket.

crweiner commented 4 years ago

I know Ben, it just seems so odd. To go through the hassle to make swag, tease it, host hackathons, write an upcoming blog post about the swag, but no 'don't share our swag on your little Markdown list because it'll attract a few bad apples' just doesn't make any marketing sense...

crweiner commented 4 years ago

Sadly no SendGrid swag this year per this Tweet

crweiner commented 4 years ago

A new company, Uno is giving away their own swag for Hacktoberfest! Yay!!! We've got another new one! See their blog post here Edit: Added in PR #48!
