Hacktoberpedia

Welcome to Hacktoberpedia — an open-source encyclopedia for tech enthusiasts!
This project is part of Hacktoberfest, and aims to be a student-friendly hub of short, clear, markdown-based guides on various technical topics.


What is Hacktoberpedia?

Think of it like a mini Wikipedia — but for tech and open source topics that college students actually care about.
You can contribute by writing markdown files (like git.md, vim.md, api-design.md, react-hooks.md, etc.) explaining your favorite tools, concepts, or frameworks in your own words.
