This repo is for R-Ladies Chicago's October Meetup, our Hacktoberfest Hack or Treat! We'll open some issues in this repo and others within our organization. Complexity will range from very beginner-friendly to intermediate. We'll then work together to make some pull requests (PRs). We're open to any contributions: from fixing a typo on our website to adding a tutorial to our R-beginners repo!

Before our meetup, please do the following:
- Make a GitHub account if you don't have one
- Sign up for DigitalOcean's Hacktoberfest to track your PR contributions
- Bring your laptop to the meetup so you can make some PRs!
Please note: We strive to create a welcoming, collaborative environment. If you are unable or feel uncomfortable doing any of the previoulsy mentioned steps, you are still welcome to attend!
Hacktoberfest is an opportunity to contribute to others' projects on GitHub. People will indicate a specific repo needs contributions by opening issues. To make this contribution, you would make your changes to an existing repo and then make a pull request to let the repo owner that you have implemented a change.
We'll be opening some issues to work on soon! You'll be able to find them by clicking on the "Issues" tab at the top of a given repo. We'll include some links to these issues here within reason.
If you have a project on GitHub that could use some extra eyes/hands, please let us know and label it with rladies-chicago. We can also link the issue here!
You can search GitHub for issues that have been tagged as a good way to contribute to Hacktoberfest.
