Contributing to Hacktoberfest 2025 — Python Starter

Thanks for your interest in contributing! This guide will help you get started.

Good first issues

Look for issues labeled good first issue or help wanted. Those are great for beginners.

How to open a contribution

  1. Fork the repository.
  2. Create a descriptive branch (e.g. fix/readme-typo, feat/new-example).
  3. Make your changes. Keep commits small and focused.
  4. If you added code, add or update tests in tests/.
  5. Run tests locally with pytest (install with pip install -r requirements.txt if needed).
  6. Push your branch and open a Pull Request (PR) on GitHub.
  7. In your PR description, explain what you changed and why.

Coding style

  • Keep it simple and readable.
  • Use docstrings for functions.
  • Follow PEP8 where practical.

Mentorship / Support

If you're new to open source, comment on an issue saying you're working on it — maintainers may help.
