BioDrop Newsletter: October 2023

Our first issue! Find out what is happening and what we have coming up on the platform.

A few months ago we asked if you would be interested in finding out more about BioDrop. Thank you for signing up to what will be a monthly newsletter of all things BioDrop! We are so happy you are here!

Hacktoberfest

BioDrop is taking part in the Hacktoberfest event!

If you want to contribute to BioDrop during this event which takes place throughout October, then here are our tips:

1. Familiarise yourself with the requirements on the Hacktoberfest website.

   Do check out what will count for this event - here is a good reminder by BioDrop Maintainer Pradumna Saraf.

1. Check out the BioDrop’s README for more information.

2. If you are new to contributing to the BioDrop GitHub Repo then look out for unassigned Issues with the `Hacktoberfest` label as these are a great way for you to start!

3. So that your PR can be merged, it is important for you to read BioDrop’s Contributing Guide.

Blog 📝

As we continue on the journey of building the BioDrop SaaS Platform, we wanted to share what we are learning. One of the ways in which we are doing this is through the BioDrop Blog: here you will find posts about the challenges we have as founders, what it takes to build a product, but also tips on how you can contribute to the BioDrop GitHub Repo.

We hope you enjoy reading this and if there are any topics you would like us to right about then you can let us know - either comment or socials or this newsletter issue!
