This is a really nice idea! Contributers should have the possibility to quickly choose a relevant project to help. Quick question: how are the projects ranked? By popularity or does it adapt to the user's contribution history? Congrats on the launch guys! I look forward to trying it ;)

@merlin_laffitte Thanks. The rank is random at the moment. The algorithm chooses a subset of repositories, every 24 hours. So, you would see a handful of projects everyday.

@jaipradeesh ok that's nice. At least you reach diversity doing so and you do not push the same project to all contributers everyday. Thanks for your quick response!

Hi Hunters! 👋 Open-source maintainers dedicate their time doing public good, and they deserve better than getting spammed. We believe Hacktoberfest is a force of good, and want to give new contributors a better way to start contributing. Fixing code quality issues is easy for a beginner, and improves the open-source project in a positive way. That’s why we built Discover. If you’re a first time contributor to open-source (or) up for a meaningful contribution as part of Hacktoberfest, go to https://deepsource.io/discover/ to find an issue, fix it and send a pull request. Each contribution counts. Feedback/suggestions/bugs, let us know @DeepSourceHQ on Twitter. Happy Hacktoberfest!

For someone getting started with open-source projects this is incredible and launched at the right time of Hacktoberfest. 👌
