Follow these steps to contribute to this repo

When you want to work on a GitHub project, the first step is to fork a repo.

Click on the Fork button in the top-right corner. This creates a new copy of my repo under your GitHub username like this:

https://github.com/[YourUserName]/mlsa-workshop-diy

Next, clone the repo by opening the terminal on your computer and running the command:

git clone https://github.com/[YourUserName]/mlsa-workshop-diy

Now create a branch using the git checkout command:

git checkout -b [BranchName]

Create a new remote for the upstream repo ("upstream repo" refers to the original repo you created your fork from) with the command:

git remote add upstream https://github.com/prernamittal03//mlsa-workshop-diy

Append your name to the contributors list in the HTML file in the cloned repo and save the changes.

Add those changes to the branch you just created using the command:

git add .

Now commit your changes using the git commit command:

git commit -m "Adding my name to the list"

Push your changes to GitHub by the push command:

git push -u origin [BranchName]
