Hello all you beautiful nerds and welcome to another year of Hacktoberfest at the Hacktoberfest Swag List!
This year looks a little different. As the official website states, Hacktoberfest 2026 is 300+ community-hosted, one-day Fests plus a global online event, all focused on hands-on building with open source AI. It is stewarded by Major League Hacking (MLH) and DEV, with DigitalOcean as presenting partner, and it no longer counts pull requests.
Open source still runs 365 days a year, and plenty of organizations celebrate October with their own contribution programs and swag. Whether this is your first Hacktoberfest or your 10th, everyone can contribute to making open-source software even better!
Low-code and no-code contributions like documentation, translations, design, and issue triage are real contributions too, so everyone has a chance, regardless of skill level, to make open-source projects even better!
New to git and GitHub? Use the git cheat sheet (PDF) created by the Hacktoberfest team to learn how to contribute!
Please take a look at the Contributing guide before adding an organization to the list.
Do you want to put your project in front of tens of thousands of developers during Hacktoberfest? Sponsor the Hacktoberfest Swag List to get your logo and message on the repo, site, and swag listing for an entire year!
The Hacktoberfest Swag List site and GitHub repo are here to showcase all of the amazing companies that go above and beyond by offering their own swag for the holiday. The goal of this project is to connect contributors to open-source projects that they might not have heard about before and drive traffic towards organizations that celebrate Hacktoberfest and can use a little more help.
Participating in Hacktoberfest requires following the official rules, and this list requires not spamming the participating companies.
