Weekly Community Check-In #77 - Hacktober and Outreachy October

[cesswairimu]

Hi everybody! 👏

We all at Public Lab 🎈 - learn, grow, work, brainstorm ideas, contribute together so why not share about our weekly goals and the awesome work we have done at Public Lab with each other, so we can support and collaborate with each other better. We have a Community Check-In each week, where every community member can share something about their work from the past week and about their current week's goal 🎯 . You are also welcome to share fun-fact 😄 , new ideas 💡 , your learning goals ☑️.

We believe in collaborative efforts to support our community. We are running a learning platform which helps a newcomer to become a leader of tomorrow. 💯

Hacktober and Outreachy October

This October we are expecting folks from Hackoberbest and Outreachy applicants for the winter program. So lets be on the lookout and help where need be.

👩‍💻 Hackoberfest 👨‍💻

If you are a contributor consider registering for Hacktoberfes and contribute to our projects. If you open 4 PRs during the month of October you will receive a Hacktoberfest tee or tree reward after the month is over. New contributors coming in for Hacktoberfest welcome and its great to have you here 🎈. We have a number of issues with the 'hackoberfest' label but also feel free to check out our 'help-wanted' issues. We could organize an event within the month if we have a number of people participating. Be sure to checkout any virtual events in your region and see if you would be interested in attending one

Welcome Hacktober participants and Outreachy Winter applicants!

[urvashigupta7]

Hi everyone, I will be participating in Outreachy as well as Hacktoberfest this time. Really excited. 🤩❤️🎉

[sagarpreet-chadha]

I heard that we can even ask them (hacktoberfest) to plan a tree instead of receiving swags, is that true?

I plan to work on number of issues mostly in PL.editor this week 😄
Will try to open FTO’s as well labelling hactoberfest 👍

[cesswairimu]

@sagarpreet-chadha that's true 🎉

[cesswairimu]

Moved to publiclab/PublicLab.Editor#634. Thanks everyone 🎉
