Hi there @brendRos,

I believe that participating in Hacktoberfest is a great way to start!

Here is a link with some useful resources for beginners on how to get started:

This includes a step by step video on how to submit your first PR.

The main thing that I would say to keep in mind is that quantity is fun, quality is key!

Good luck 🙌.

Bobby

Hi @brendRos,

I get how you feel. I use to feel the same way. What I can suggest is to use one of the languages you mentioned and find a really straight forward project. Use it a couple of days to understand how it works. Once you know how it works you can start contributing as code. It can be something simple at the beginning, maybe a typo or similar.

Don’t worry not all communities are negative, I dare to say that some GitHub open projects have a lot of friendly faces maintaining them.

Give it a try, no need to worry!
