Open-October contribution destination. The Contest has now ended.
🔮🎃 TRICK OR TREAT 🎃🔮
OpenOctober is an opensource based competition organized by IEEE SFIT. It is an event dedicated to coding and celebrating the developer in you.
In this event, you can contribute to a live project and make a pull request to the repository you desire to work on.
This competition will go on for 3 days but don't be disheartened, you can keep contributing after the time is over but it will not be considered for evaluation.
We believe - and we hope you do too
that learning how to code, how to think, and how to contribute to open source can empower the next generation of coders and creators.
If you are first time contributor, we want you to know that everyone started from somewhere!
So start here!⚡
The event will be held from 6th to 8th October 2022
OpenOctober is open to everyone whether you're new to development , a student or a long time contributer.

Links to the different repositories are mentioned, and each repository has also put up the code of conduct on their repository. Each participant is requested to follow the code of conduct
However, the participants will be allowed to create and edit code on the repos either of self or of another participant.
The criterion to judge is:-
