Summary

The GitLab community's Q3 Hackathon on September 2-3 set a new record with 313 merge requests (MRs) submitted, showcasing significant growth in community contributions, particularly in frontend/UX areas, such as the migration of Pajamas components. Feedback from previous events led to the inclusion of more backend-related issues, supported by numerous tutorial sessions that received over 100 views within 24 hours. Participants whose MRs were merged by September 15th received laptop sleeves, with special recognition for top contributors like Rajendra Kadam and Jonston Chan. The next Hackathon is scheduled for December 2-3, 2020, featuring a Community Challenge offering custom merchandise for successful contributions. Interested participants can begin by visiting the "Contributing to GitLab" page to explore ways to engage with the project, whether through code, documentation, or design.
