@Akshu-on-github Is there something specific you would like me to update?

Answer 3 · 2021-07-28T09:35:24.000Z

Not for now @msaini26 - needed a reminder on what people found confusing! Coud you briefly describe what you found confusing and what might help another in your shoes?

@Akshu-on-github If this repository is for first time users, it might be helpful to explain step-by-step how to start. For example, first fork the repo, then clone it, create your own branch, make changes, etc. We can include code snippets of what to write exactly in the terminal. Let me know what you think.

Indeed, I see these in several first-timer repos... but personally, I don't think it comes under the CONTRIBUTING.md. Instead, could you create a file called FIRST_CONTRIBUTIONS.md with the same @msaini26?
