Hello open source enthusiasts 👋

Again this year, the Process Analytics team is participating in [Hacktoberfest 2022](https://hacktoberfest.com/), as we did for [Hacktoberfest 2021](https://dev.to/process-analytics/hacktoberfest-2021-with-process-analytics-241) and [Hacktoberfest 2020](https://dev.to/marcin_michniewicz/hacktoberfest-challenge-398g).

Whether you are a beginner or an experienced front-end developer, you’ve never done front-end development but you come from a process analytics or business process management BPM community, or simply you are fan of processes 😍, we have [issues](https://github.com/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+user%3Aprocess-analytics+archived%3Afalse+label%3Ahacktoberfest+) for you ! 

We welcome your help to improve the project with your contributions and ideas.


### The Process Analytics project

Our cornerstone project is [bpmn-visualization](https://github.com/process-analytics/bpmn-visualization-js/) 🔱, a TypeScript library for visualizing process execution data on [BPMN](https://www.bpmn.org/) diagrams. It comes with a companion repository of [examples](https://github.com/process-analytics/bpmn-visualization-examples/)✨.

For Hacktoberfest, we have several contribution categories.

If you are fan of **processes and their visualization** 🌈, we propose for you to work on topics like extending the BPMN (which is the de-facto process modeling language) support, improving the BPMN elements design, or others - we have more to suggest. You may want to have a look at hacktoberfest issues from the Typescript library [bpmn-visualization](https://github.com/process-analytics/bpmn-visualization-js/labels/hacktoberfest).

If you are more into **design** 🎨 and  **project content** 📜, check the [Process Analytics website](https://github.com/process-analytics/process-analytics.dev/) and [bpmn-visualization-examples](https://github.com/process-analytics/bpmn-visualization-examples) repository. 💕

If you are a **Process Analyst** 🕵️‍♂️, we are featuring [advocacy related contributions](https://hacktoberfest.com/about/#low-or-non-code) which are now officially introduced by Hacktoberfest 2022. You may want to have a look at the [bpmn-visualization-examples](https://github.com/process-analytics/bpmn-visualization-examples) repository and particularly at [this issue](https://github.com/process-analytics/bpmn-visualization-examples/issues/388).  

Finally, if you are an **experienced web developer** 😎, and you’d like to add examples of integration with popular frameworks such as Angular, React, VueJS and more, you can check the integration related issues of the [bpmn-visualization-examples](https://github.com/process-analytics/bpmn-visualization-examples/labels/hacktoberfest).

R users 📈 will be interested in [bpmn-visualization-R](https://github.com/process-analytics/bpmn-visualization-R/), the R package for visualizing process execution data on BPMN diagrams, using overlays, style customization and interactions.


### Promoting HacktoberFest 2022

We have updated our now-famous application that promotes the event 🥳. It now includes the new 2022 theme in addition to the existing 2020 and 2021 themes.


You can easily adapt the customizable diagram so that it contains your project name, and you can choose between different light and dark themes! 🎉

### Even if you don’t code!
