• I have searched the existing issues

Issue Description

The current documentation guides users through forking and editing a repository, but it does not provide information about contributing changes back to the original repository using pull requests

There is no mention of how users can compare their forked branch to the upstream repository

Suggested Change

Add a dedicated section explaining what pull requests are, why they matter, and how to initiate a pull request from a forked repository using GitHub’s web interface, emphasizing the accessibility for beginners.

Illustrate the "Compare across forks" feature, showing users how to select their fork/branch and compare it against the upstream repository
