It's October in most places now, so it's time to share this:
https://jcarroll.com.au/2024/10/01/a-safe-space-for-learning-how-to-make-pull-requests/
If you're new to contributing to open source software and want some experience making a pull request to fix an R package, then you're welcome to try it out on this repository
https://github.com/jonocarroll/safespace
I'll review your changes and give feedback, and you can test the waters for changing someone else's codebase.
Boosts and shares will be appreciated!
