👋 Do you know? The No-shave November campaign started with the aim of raising awareness and funding for cancer prevention, research and education. Such an innovative way right!

What are we developers waiting for then? Buckle up and let's get ready for “Hacktoberfest'21”. Let’s make “Open Source October” a ritual for every open-source contributor! This October let's contribute, collaborate and educate ourselves and others about open-source!

To do so, I along with a few other amazing folks have decided to mentor newbies in kickstarting their open-source journey.
