I recommend Github desktop https://github.com/apps/desktop

Create a fork of the repo, so you'll have your own copy of it

Make changes online or copy the new repo to your computer

Here's some git basic nomenclature if you're lost

tip: People generally make changes to a branch of their repo. Do as many commits you want in that branch. Try to make sure the branch uses the latest version of Albeoris/main

Once you're done, make a pull request from your branch to Alboris' repo's main.

Add an accurate title and bullet points description of your changes, and either make it a draft if it's a WIP or Create Pull Request if it's ready to be checked and merged.

When you commit in your branch, it will automatically get added to your pull request

When it's approved, we usually Squash and Merge, meaning all your changes will become one commit in the main timeline

Tip: People usually delete their branch once it's merged, and create a new one from Albeoris/main
