hacktoberfest

This article is a quick one about my annual tradition - participating in Hacktoberfest, the "month-long celebration of open-source projects, their maintainers, and the entire community of contributors.

... And that's a wrap! This year I had the chance, and the privilege to once again participate in the month-long celebration of open-source, Hacktoberfest . And unlike last year, I took the time to write about the experience again!

Another year, another Hacktoberfest, another haphazard participation, and - as usual - another blog post a little bit late. Still, better late than never!

As a lot of the more frequent readers of this blog know, I generally work on proprietary - that is, non-open-source - projects. Whenever I do have some time to dabble in OSS, it's usually for a hobby.

This post is about the Hacktoberfest event in 2018. I contributed to Microsoft's repositories and a couple of other ones - and it was a lot of fun! Wow - I'm quite behind on this post, but thought it's worthwhile to give credit where credit is due.
