Uno Platform at Hacktoberfest 2022: Contribute, Learn, and Celebrate Open Source 🌍💜

Every October, developers from all over the world come together for Hacktoberfest. It’s not just about adding pull requests to your GitHub profile — it’s about learning something new, connecting with other contributors, and celebrating the power of open source.

I’m happy to share that Uno Platform is once again part of Hacktoberfest in 2022. This year feels especially exciting because contributions aren’t limited to code. You can also help with documentation or even spread the word through blogs, tutorials, or translations.

That’s one of the things I appreciate most about Uno Platform: it values every type of contribution. Whether you’re fixing a bug, writing a guide, or helping others discover Uno, your work matters.

The Prizes 🎁

And yes — there are prizes! Uno has prepared some special rewards for contributors this year, and they’re stackable, so the more you contribute, the more you can earn:

  • 2 contributions → Free eBook Getting Started with Uno Platform and WinUI 3

  • 4 contributions → Uno Platform T-shirt + stickers

  • 10 contributions → Uno Platform sweater + stickers

On top of that, you’ll also be in the running for one of the official Hacktoberfest prizes.

What Counts as a Contribution? ✨

There are a few different ways to get involved:

  • Code → Work on any open issue in Uno’s GitHub repo.

  • Documentation → Choose from curated doc issues or propose a new one. If it gets tagged for Hacktoberfest, you’re good to go.

  • Advocacy → Write about your experience with Uno, create a tutorial, or translate an existing guide into another language. You don’t even need your own blog — you can publish on sites like dev.to, Medium, or C# Corner.

The key is to make your contributions meaningful. Small typo fixes are nice, but they won’t count this year. The focus is on improvements that help the whole community.

Getting Started 🚀

If it’s your first time contributing, don’t worry — Uno has made it easy. Here are a few helpful links:

You can also ask for help on the Uno Platform Discord or even contribute directly from your browser with GitPod.

Why I Love Hacktoberfest 💡

Over the years, I’ve seen how Hacktoberfest can spark someone’s very first contribution. For many, it’s the beginning of a journey in open source — a place where you realize your skills, no matter how small they may seem, can actually make an impact.

That’s why I’m glad Uno Platform is part of it again. It’s not only about improving the framework, but also about encouraging new contributors to step in, try something new, and feel the joy of giving back.
