Hacktoberfest 2026
Kathmandu Univeristy Dhulikhel, Bagmati 45210 Nepal
Event Description
Join us for Hacktoberfest: Tiny Open-Source LLMs Edition!
Celebrate the spirit of open source by exploring, optimizing, and contributing to the world of lightweight, edge-ready AI. We are spotlighting tiny language models—from quantized architectures and compact open-weight models to on-device runtimes, datasets, and developer tooling.
Whether you are making your very first pull request or contributing optimizations to open-source AI pipelines, this event brings developers together to learn, collaborate, and earn Hacktoberfest rewards.
Bring your machine, explore curated open-source repositories, and let’s push the boundaries of local, accessible AI together!
Happy hacking!
