Hey, thanks so much for contributing this Markdown file! 😊

Just a quick note — Hacktoberfest is a yearly event, and sometimes repositories choose to opt out of it. If that happens, this file might end up being removed later, which wouldn’t be ideal.

Also, since we already follow a general contribution guideline, this file ends up being a bit redundant.

That said, we’d love to have your help on other things! Feel free to check out any of the open, unassigned issues, report new issue — you’re more than welcome to jump in.

Thanks again for your time and enthusiasm! 💪
