We are excited to announce that we are participating in this year's Hacktoberfest! and the best part is that at OpenGenus, we have made our projects super contributor friendly so that anyone can contribute and win a cool t-shirt.

Hacktoberfest is sponsored by DigitalOcean, GitHub and Twilio (two of which are sponsors of OpenGenus as well. Yay!)
