Contributing

If you would like to contribute but are not a contributor yet, follow thes steps below. However, if you find a vulnerability that requires immediate attention, go to the repositories security tab to report it. A vulnerability report should contain what file has the vulnerability, what priority it is, and extensive details.

Write your contributions
Test your contributions in your clone by running npm install, then npm start and then going to localhost:3000 in your browser
