Beginner Friendly PR Bot

Who am I?

This is me, and here's my twitter handle.

What do I do?

I tweet beginner-friendly GitHub issues to help developers start their open source contribution journey.

Who are you (the reader)?

• Someone who is new to coding. ☺️
• Someone who has been coding for a while, but has never contributed to open source projects. 😌
• Neither of these and now wondering why are you here? 😳

How can I help you?

• Follow me on Twitter.
• Keep an eye out for various issues which I tweet.
• Grab any issue which you like or find easy.
• Make your first open source contribution.
• And that's it! You did it.

That's one small step for [a] developer, one giant leap for open source community.
