How to contribute

• Create a feature branch with a branch name relevant to the feature you're implementing. For example, if you are creating a project list component you can name your branch feature/project-list-component. You can also get creative and name your branch something like feature/astro-world if you're migrating to astro : )

• Proceed with your work on that branch and then create a pull request to dev with a description of the work implemented on that branch and images (or videos where applicable) showcasing your work.

• After creating the PR you can request a review of your work from one of the developers on the project who will then provide feedback based on your work and whatever changes may need to be implemented.

• When the review is done your work will be merged into the dev branch
