I still don't know what to say, my goal for the **hacktoberfest** and OSS for this year was to create an open source project that enables beginners to participate in a project where the breaking of stuff is part of the process and helping every single participant get a smooth experience in using git version control ( I didn't have that while learning back then)

Now we have 7 countries projects created by beginners who have zero knowledge about open source.

Congratulations to everyone who participated and never give up!!!
