Hacktoberfest is here, and at Quira, we couldn’t be more excited. We're super proud to announce that this year we’re sponsoring Hacktoberfest alongside DigitalOcean and Cloudflare. To mark the occasion, we’re launching two incredible quests designed to make this a memorable month.

🐻‍❄️ Hacktoberfest with MindsDB

For many years, MindsDB has been a champion of open-source AI, and this Hacktoberfest, they’re taking it to the next level. They’ve put together a challenge where contributors can help improve their ecosystem, tackle meaningful issues, and even build new SDKs and tools.

To make things even more exciting, they've set things up so that every contribution earns points. You can collect these points and exchange them for some serious rewards—including official MindsDB swag and entries into a prize draw for three Razer Blade 16 gaming laptops. Standout contributors may also be invited to become Community Maintainers, opening the door to even bigger opportunities within the MindsDB ecosystem.

If you love working on AI-powered projects or want to test your skills in a high-impact environment, this is your chance. Full details, including how to participate and track your progress, can be found in the quest's page on Quira.

Introducing Solver Quests

We’re also using Hacktoberfest as an opportunity to soft-launch Solver Quests, our new product for bounties on GitHub issues.

Throughout October, we’ll be rolling out Solver Quests across various GitHub repositories, giving you a chance to earn badges, DevRank, and swag. Some of our partners—including MindsDB, Taipy, Cyclops, and Daytona—are already hosting Solver Quests, and more will be announced soon.

And here’s the fun part: Some Solver Quests will be indexed in Quira, but some others won't be indexed in the app - you have to find them. But don't worry, we’ll send some swag to the developers whose contributions achieve the most impact regardless of whether they were made via Solver Quests or not.

Let's make Hacktoberfest memorable. Happy hacking 🖖
