Hacktoberfest is open to everyone in the global community. Whether you’re a developer, student learning to code, event host, or a company of any size, you can help drive growth of open source and make positive contributions to an ever-growing community. All backgrounds and skill levels are encouraged to complete the challenge. Join the Hacktoberfest Prep: Easing into CNCF Open Source Projects.

Layer5 celebrates and supports all open source contributors in our global community.

Layer5 is a warm and welcoming community of open source contributors. We are continuously welcoming new members. If would like to join as community member, simply fill-in the new community member form. New members are always welcome.

At Layer5, we champion developer-defined infrastructure, giving engineers the power to reshape application delivery. We empower operators in reimagining how they manage modern infrastructure: collaboratively.

Hacking on open source issues

We have communities spread across the month of October to introduce you to the Layer5 project repositories and help you get started on those pull requests.

A long list of hacktoberfest issues have been specially curated in anticipation of our hackers! Here is a list of help wanted issues to help you make your mark in open-source and move towards successfully completing the Hacktoberfest challenge.
