We are doing a series of Hacktoberfest Hyderabad meetups across the month of October, to help you get into open source and contribute to more projects. In each of our meetup, we'll start with a talk on Git and GitHub, followed by a few hours of hacking and open source contributions.

Hacktoberfest is open to everyone in our global community. Whether you’re a developer, student learning to code, event host, or company of any size, you can help drive growth of open source and make positive contributions to an ever-growing community. All backgrounds and skill levels are encouraged to complete the challenge.

- Hacktoberfest is open to everyone in the global community!
- Pull requests can be made in any GitHub-hosted repositories/projects.
- You can sign up anytime between October 1 and October 31.

Note : This year, the first 50,000 participants who successfully complete the challenge will earn a T-shirt.
