Happy #hacktoberfest. This event, hosted over here, is about giving back to open source projects. We encourage you all to check it out and make some contributions. We prepared some issues by ourself, they can be found here, but fear not to take on other issues in our repo.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask them away in our chats, we are there to help!
