All backgrounds and skill levels are encouraged to complete the challenge.

What is open source?

• It's never been easy to learn programming. But despite tons of ways to learn how to code, it is believed that the best way to improve your skills is by contributing to open source projects.

• The open source community provides a great opportunity for aspiring programmers to distinguish themselves; and by contributing to various projects, developers can improve their skills and get inspiration and support from like-minded people.

• To get started with open source contributions, you can search GitHub repositories labelled good first issue , first-timer issues or easy and start working on these issues.
