Virtual Coffee Hacktoberfest 2023 Roundup

Dan Ott - Nov 9 '23 - - Dev Community

Another Hacktoberfest has come and gone!

This was Virtual Coffee's fourth (fourth!!) Hacktoberfest (🤯🤯🤯) and it was another great one! Our members knocked it out of the park as usual, and we wanted to take a moment to celebrate!

Our Virtual Coffee Hacktoberfest Initiative (VCHI) is an annual event where our members come together to help each other contribute to Open Source and hopefully complete Digital Ocean's Hacktoberfest Challenge. Some of our members are maintainers of their own repos, some sign up as mentors for members who are new to open source, and some sign up just to get Hacktoberfesting!

This year's Virtual Coffee Hacktoberfest Initiative was sponsored by Clerk

Clerk - More than authentication. Complete user management.

Also sponsoring VCHI 2023 were a few amazing individual sponsors:

This year our amazing volunteer Monthly Challenge Team helping the maintainers out running things - so a very special ✨ thank you ✨ to @dominicduffin1, @adiatiayu and @jarvisscript. And one more HUGE shoutout to Amy Dutton who designed our Virtual Coffee Hacktoberfest shirt--used as the cover image here.

We kicked off the month with three great Hacktoberfest/Open Source videos and an entire season of open source related podcast episodes:

We had 43 members sign up as contributors, repository maintainers, and mentors. Here are some cool stats and shoutouts from VCHI 2023:

Mentors:

Our mentors are one of the biggest parts of what we do at VC for Hacktoberfest. They each have one or more mentees and spend the month helping people start their open source journey.

✨ Thank you ✨ to our amazing mentors:

  • BekahHW
  • Ryan Kahn
  • Michael Jolley
  • Jessica Wilkins
  • Meg Gutshall
  • Aishwarya Mali
  • Ayu Adiati
  • Marie Antons
  • Justin Wheeler
  • James Curran
  • Dan Ott
  • Kirk Shillingford
  • David Alpert
  • Derek Johnston

Maintainers:

Some of our members signed up as open source maintainers - these members (and all of the Hacktoberfest maintainers) spend a lot of time on their projects behind the scenes, preparing their repositories and helping contributors be successful. For the 11 repos our participating members are maintaining, they merged 427 pull requests from 217 unique contributors 🤯🤯🤯.

✨ Thank you ✨ to our awesome maintainers:

VirtualCoffee.io:

Every year for Hacktoberfest, we prepare a special issue that members can contribute to to get them started towards Hacktoberfest. We also try to create a number of other issues like new features, bug fixes, and general improvements throughout the month.

On the VirtualCoffee.io repo in the month of October 2023: 46 members made 69 pull requests, 14 of which were new features or other improvements to the site.

Amazing!

Contributions:

Of the 46 members that signed up, 44 members had at least one accepted pull request in a repository participating in Hacktoberfest, and we collectively created 232 pull requests across 57 repositories in the month of October.

This is incredible. We are so proud of everyone who contributed, whether this is their first time in open source or they've been keeping all their squares green for years.

We were able to tally up everyone's contributions - here are all of the Hacktoberfest pull requests that our members made this month:
