HelloGitHub is a Chinese-language project that shares interesting, beginner-friendly open-source projects from GitHub. According to the README, it is published as a monthly magazine, with new issues released on the 28th of every month. Each issue rounds up a curated mix of approachable open-source projects, open-source books, hands-on practice projects, and enterprise-grade projects, so readers can quickly experience the appeal of open source and grow to enjoy contributing to it. English and Japanese versions of the README state the same intent. The repository itself is essentially a long index of past issues. The visible README shows links to issues numbered 86 through 121, each pointing to a Markdown file under the content folder where the actual write-ups live. There is also an official website at hellogithub.com that the README points to for a better reading experience, plus a WeChat public account, a Weibo account, and a WeChat group. The README invites readers to recommend or self-recommend their own projects to be included in a future issue, and links to a contributors list. A small sponsors table credits UCloud, Upyun CDN, OpenIM, Qiniu Cloud, and OfoxAI. The project is released under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International license. You would use HelloGitHub when you want a regular, curated stream of approachable open-source projects to explore, especially as a beginner looking for a friendly entry point. The repository is tagged as a Python project in its metadata, but the content is editorial rather than code, so what you actually consume is the monthly write-ups and links.
