Welcome to :sparkles:welcome-newcomers:sparkles: !
Here's something to get started: :nerd_face:
Complete each task and watch this issue's comment for rewards! :trophy:
Please keep this issue open as a guide, and also to get your rewards in the comments!
[x] Add your name to the README.md file :pencil:
Open the README.md file and click the pencil button to edit the file.
Make your changes.
Scroll down and click Commit Changes (leave "Commit directly to the master branch" selected)
Go to pull requests and click "new pull request". Right under the title "Compare changes", click the link that says "compare across forks"
Make sure that you're comparing base fork: original repo / master and head fork: your repo / master, and click "Create pull request". If you get "there isn't anything to compare", click "try switching the base" and then create pull request. On the next page, click give your PR a title and optional comment and "create pull request" again. If everything went well, you'll make a mythological animal very happy :heart:
Note: if you don't get your reward, try this: go to your open pull request, click "Merge pull request" and again "Confirm merge". You can do this merge yourself because you're a collaborator, and collaborators have push rights. If you weren't a collaborator, you would still be able to make a pull request, but the you'd have to wait for the owner of the repo to merge your changes. If everything went right, you'll get a cookie down below :smile: This tip applies to the next step as well!
[x] Add a new .md file :file_folder:
Go to the "Code" section of your forked repo and click "Create new file".
Use "your-name.md" as the file name and fill it with a short introduction (you can include where you're from, your likes and dislikes, etc.)
Scroll down and click "Commit new file", just as you did in the previous task.
Commit your change and come back to this issue. You will have received a delicious reward, and your Pull Request will now have 2 commits.
[x] Close this issue :raising_hand:
Scroll down to the bottom of this issue and click "Close issue", then refresh your browser. You'll get another reward! :star:
