Click the "Fork" button at the top right corner of this repository to create your personal fork.
Clone the forked repository from your account to your local machine:
git clone https://github.com/codemacrocosm/Vocab-a-Thon.git
Navigate to the JSON file (words.json
) and open it for editing. Utilize the template provided below to add your word:
{

"definitions": [
"Your word definition 1",
