Just finished my first #rstats #TidyDevDay! It might have been a net negative on open issues, because I:

* opened an issue each in {pak}, {roxygen2}, and {gitcreds}
* submitted a PR to {forcats}
* submitted a PR to {usethis} (needs corrected test)

But at least I got this selfie with @hadley.nz 🫠😆

That's a wrap on my first #TidyDevDay, complete with ringing the gong! I was intimidated going into it, but everyone was super supportive. I had a great time and learned a lot. Thanks to all the folks @posit.co for organizing, especially @jennybryan.bsky.social - everyone's favorite Git therapist 😂

Did my neighbor and I immediately check to see if our coins stuck together like magnets? Yes.

But also, the backside is a relief rendering of the {tidyverse} hex logo, so it feels trying to put a magnet on would undo one of the sides 🙃🫠

#TidyDevDay definitely boosted my confidence in contributing to open source projects beyond the Data Science Learning Community. Since then, I’ve contributed to CAMIS and the R Dev Guide. Shout out to Posit and the #rstats community for helping newbies to get started with open source contributions.
