I was first in, best dressed to write the R API wrapper for an open source server (ODK Central). Proceeded to go through open source peer review at rOpenSci and made it a robust R package that is now used by a good few people.

The package is of course nothing HN worthy, but I'm proud of having contributed something back to FOSS.

The crunchy bit was parsing form data by introspecting a form schema (then XML, now JSON) which initially nearly made me lose my mind, hence the package name "ruODK"?
