+# Hacktoberfest 2024: Bring your own code
+
+![The Hacktoberfest Logo](images/hacktoberfest24/logo.png){: .no-caption style="display:block;margin:auto;width:69%" }
+
+[Hacktoberfest](https://hacktoberfest.com/) is a month-long annual event that encourages people to contribute to open source throughout October. The motivation of Hacktoberfest is to celebrate all things open source, especially the people that make open source so special. 
+
+This year the central RSE team at Imperial, planned two in-person events during Hacktoberfest, on the 1st and the 23rd of October. The events were open to anybody interested in participating in open source software, either coding or with non-code contributions. Everybody was welcome to join the events and bring their own code along for a discussion with the central RSE team members. This included [low code and non-code contributions](https://hacktoberfest.com/participation/#low-or-non-code) - a big chunk of what surrounds good open source software has nothing to do with code!
+
+## First event: 1st of October 2024
+
+The first event took place in the Chemistry Building, in the South Kensington Campus. Most of the attendees were there in person, but a few also joined online. We tried together to work in groups when dealing with the same piece of software, but we were so much in the flow, that we forgot and end up hacking intensely with our own thoughts. Before we could realized, it was already lunch time and, then the wrap up session. 
+
+![In person attendees _in the flow_.](images/hacktoberfest24/attendees_day1.jpg){: .no-caption style="display:block;margin:auto;width:69%" }
+
+The following projects were pitched at the start of the event and chosen by the attendees to work on:
+
+### Crystalbot – Benjamin Scharpf​
+
+​(TBC)
+
+### Clockify TUI – Alexander Dewar​
+
+​(TBC)
+​
+### WSIMOD – Barnaby Dobson​
+
+The terrestrial water cycle is a highly interconnected system where the movement of water is affected by physical and human processes. Thus, environmental models may become inaccurate if they do not provide a complete picture of the water cycle, missing out on unexpected opportunities and omitting impacts that arise from complex interactions.
+
+[WSIMOD](https://imperialcollegelondon.github.io/wsi/) is a modelling framework written in Python to integrate these different processes. It provides a message passing interface to enable different subsystem models to communicate water flux and water quality information between each other, and self-contained representations of the key parts of the water cycle (rivers, reservoirs, urban and rural hydrological catchments, treatment plants, and pipe networks).
+
+The main work done for Hacktoberfest was related to [refactoring some bits of code](https://github.com/ImperialCollegeLondon/wsi/pull/106) to improve its modularity. 
+
+### SWMManywhere – Barnaby Dobson​
+
+[SWMManywhere](https://imperialcollegelondon.github.io/SWMManywhere/) is a tool to synthesise urban drainage network models (UDMs) using publicly available data such as street network, DEM, and building footprints, across the globe. It also provides tools for generating SWMM input files and performing simulations for the synthesised UDMs.
+
+Also only one issue was tackled during the event by our colleague Tom Bland, [setting up Codecov in the repo](https://github.com/ImperialCollegeLondon/SWMManywhere/pull/304), but it brought up a lot of trouble due to a bug in Codecov, apparently. The lessons learnt have been used for other projects, so it was time well spent! 
+
+### PyCSVY – Diego Alonso Alvarez​
+
+[CSVY](https://github.com/ImperialCollegeLondon/pycsvy) is a small Python package to handle CSV files in which the metadata in the header
+is formatted in YAML. It supports reading/writing tabular data contained in numpy
+arrays, pandas DataFrames, and nested lists, as well as metadata using a standard python
+dictionary. Ultimately, it aims to incorporate information about the [CSV
+dialect](https://specs.frictionlessdata.io/csv-dialect/) used and a [Table
+Schema](https://specs.frictionlessdata.io/table-schema/) specifying the contents of each
+column to aid the reading and interpretation of the data.
+
+There was a lot of activity in this project, which included:
+
+- [Adding support for polars Dataframes](https://github.com/ImperialCollegeLondon/pycsvy/pull/94)
+- Give the [first steps to support CSV Dialects](https://github.com/ImperialCollegeLondon/pycsvy/pull/93)
+- [Modernizing the linters and code formatters](https://github.com/ImperialCollegeLondon/pycsvy/pull/95), using `ruff`
+- Improving the [continuous integration workflows](https://github.com/ImperialCollegeLondon/pycsvy/pull/95) and [the use of Dependabot](https://github.com/ImperialCollegeLondon/pycsvy/pull/89)
