Hacktoberfest 2024

Hacktoberfest is just around the corner. You'd be surprised to know how small changes can make a big impact on a project. The more a project scales, the easier it is for small errors to live within it. You can make a real difference by fixing these relatively easier issues and continue to grow from there.

As in years past, Layer5 has a number of different projects and a variety of technologies for participants to choose from. Our Hacktoberfest theme for 2024 will focus on extending Meshery models. Meshery is an extensible, self-service platform for collaborative infrastructure management. Be sure to understand the difference between Meshery Models and Meshery Designs. The Meshery project is looking for contributors to extend these models to support new cloud native infrastructure and their features.

Prepare for Hacktoberfest and ready yourself for contributing to CNCF projects the easy way with Layer5 MeshMates and Maintainers. Spend an hour with seasoned, open source maintainers and hack your way through. To get a head start, see our Newcomers Resources. Get familiar with the Layer5 community through our Community Handbook.
