This pull request introduces a new general-purpose GitHub issue template and makes several documentation improvements for clarity and maintainability. The main changes include adding a flexible issue template, updating quick start instructions for the MVP project, and refining language in the README and project docs.

Issue Template Addition:

Documentation Improvements:

README and Project Docs:

  • Updated wording in the README.md to clarify the project's goals and simplify language, emphasizing CodeForge as a simpler, clarity-first alternative to other coding platforms. [1] [2]
  • Improved quick start instructions in docs/projects/mvp/README.md by replacing hardcoded local file paths with [project-root] placeholders for build and test commands, making them more portable. [1] [2]
  • Fixed formatting and clarified scope/out-of-scope sections in docs/week-7-issues.md by removing duplicate lines and improving readability.
  • Reorganized and clarified the project quick start and prerequisites sections in docs/projects/mvp/README.md for better onboarding.

TODO List:

  • Corrected numbering and improved clarity in TODO.md for tasks related to PR labeling and controller advice, and fixed code formatting for referenced GitHub Actions. [1] [2]
