Project Overview

The goal of this project is to update a simple JavaScript file, users.js, by adding your GitHub username to an array. This exercise is an excellent starting point for new contributors to get the hang of contributing to open source projects.

View our project website using this link: Hacktoberfest 2023 Website.

Please note that we have deployed it on a free version, so if you're visiting this URL after the server has shut down, it may take around 30 seconds to start up again. Please be patient and wait for it to start.
