How to start contributing in Open-Source
MY FIRST BLOG {Caution: No A.I help taken to write this article}
"OPEN-SOURCE"- a stage of query, an inevitable stage, a stage where the Future Lies! Perhaps, I believe most of us are either at this stage, exploring and learning the wonders❇️ of OPEN-SOURCE, or have been through all this and are already an expert; and if so then Congrats!

But what if I told you that there is already a COMMUNITY, that is there to answer anything, containing experts in everything, ready to help you always in everything, and demanding absolutely NOTHING!
Well, this community, this family of growing people, present not just locally, but indeed at a global level is what is known as OPENSOURCE.
I believe these few lines are enough to overshadow all the questions.
This is what leads to learning-in-public...
