Closed vfdev-5 closed 4 years ago

vfdev-5 commented 4 years ago

Hi, there ! For newbies who would like to gain some new skills in programming features in Python for a neural networks training tool, here is our project : https://github.com/pytorch/ignite which could be a friendly place to begin. We can help with the whole contributing process to drive the PRs up to merging it. Our "help wanted" issues vary from small feature requests, house keeping improvements, CI up to specific neural network training features (but no fear). Please, checkout our project's issues and if you wish to begin with an issue, just say about it there and we can discuss more. Thanks !

PS: personnally, it's my 4th year with HF and really excited about this cool event ! Hope everyone could enjoy and learn things as I could previously.

FAQ:

If you're here you're probably looking to learn more about contributing to open source or participating in Hacktoberfest this year.

Here are just a few of the ways Hacktoberfest will be better this year:

  1. September is Preptember – a full month for maintainers to groom your repositories and for contributors to learn about making quality pull requests.
  2. We’re introducing a virtual event kit to help event organizers and attendees get together remotely and safely.
  3. We’re offering an alternative, environmentally friendly choice of swag: You can choose the ‘Pick trees, not tees’ option to replace a Hacktoberfest T-shirt with a planted tree in celebration of your accomplishments.

What does this look like in practice?

For folks new to open source, or who are looking to contribute this year:

  • Take a breath, contributing to open source for the first time can be scary. It's okay to be anxious, but as long as you follow the guidelines in a project's CONTRIBUTING.md file you're doing fine.
    • This community is here for you. You can lean on the experienced members here by asking questions and finding cool places to start contributing.
  • If you're looking for a good place to start, look for issues tagged "good first issue" and "hacktoberfest."
  • If you're not comfortable with contributing code, there are still tons of issues to choose from like fixing documentation, creating new logos, improving parts of a project's UI or style consistency. We’ve put together this video for folks new to opensource: http://do.co/hf_firstpr
