Django London Meetup October

October edition!
This month we are going to have a Hacktoberfest edition!

Our key concepts will be:

• Encourage people to contribute to open source.
• Increase the recognition that much of modern tech relies on open source.
• Help increase representation in open source.
• Give back to the open source projects.
• Learn/teach dos and donts of open source.
• Celebrate all things open source! (especially the people that make open source so special).

We will chat, code, hack, connect and make it count! It is an open invitation, you can bring your laptop, or you can come to chat/help/mentor.
Prep: if you are going to join the coding session and make an open source contribution, please do some research before coming and finish the installation/contributors guide instructions to your chosen project.
If you are planning to do a non code contribution please do read the guide: https://hacktoberfest.com/about/#low-or-non-code.

Projects we are going to work on:

• django
• djangoproject.com
