Hey everyone! 
I’m excited to participate in Hacktoberfest 2024 and I’m looking forward to making contributions to some open-source projects this year. Specifically, I would love to contribute to Elixir/Phoenix projects.
If anyone knows of any open-source repositories in the Elixir community that could use contributions, I’d really appreciate your recommendations! I’m especially interested in backend-related tasks, but I’m open to any kind of work that helps the community.
Thanks in advance for your help, and I’m looking forward to collaborating with some of you this month!

would be awesome if someone could look into testcontainers for elixir and see if there is any room for improvement there
Its completely open source MIT licensed project. And its gotten quite usable in the last month. However, i would like to redo the way it calls out to docker, especially removing the autogenerated docker api engine and implementing specific api code inside testcontainers for elixir, since its so generic and rest based, there is no need to use thousands of lines of autogenerated code when we only use three or four endpoints in docker engine api.
Ref Remove docker engine api dependency, move into source tree · Issue #132 · testcontainers/testcontainers-elixir · GitHub
If no one else does it i will do it myself mid October
But not for hacktoberfest

Not sure if I will be able to understand the codebase right away, but I will definitely give it a try. If you have any guidance on where to start in, that will be helpful.

I am not the maintainer, but I think Salad zu could get some additional ui components.

I am not very good at ui, but appreciate your suggestion. Maybe someone else might use this post to do some contribution. Thanks!
jarlah

I guess you’ll easily find more interesting and/or popular repos to contribute to 
itzmidinesh
