+# Good Coding Practices π§βπ»
+
+1. **Follow the Project's Code Style**
+
+ - Maintain consistency with the existing code style (indentation, spacing, comments).
+ - Use meaningful and descriptive names for variables, functions, and classes.
+ - Keep functions short and focused on a single task.
+ - Avoid hardcoding values; instead, use constants or configuration files when possible.
+
+2. **Write Clear and Concise Comments**
+
+ - Use comments to explain why you did something, not just what you did.
+ - Avoid unnecessary comments that state the obvious.
+ - Document complex logic and functions with brief explanations to help others understand your thought -process.
+
+3. **Keep Code DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself)**
+
+ - Avoid duplicating code. Reuse functions, methods, and components whenever possible.
+ - If you find yourself copying and pasting code, consider creating a new function or component.
+
+4. **Write Tests**
+
+ - Write unit tests for your functions and components.
+ - Ensure your tests cover both expected outcomes and edge cases.
+ - Run tests locally before making a pull request to make sure your changes donβt introduce new bugs.
+
+5. **Code Reviews and Feedback**
+
+ - Be open to receiving constructive feedback from other contributors.
+ - Conduct code reviews for others and provide meaningful suggestions to improve the code.
+ - Always refactor your code based on feedback to meet the project's standards.
+
+
+
+# Pull Request Process π
+
+When submitting a pull request, please adhere to the following:
+
+1. **Self-review your code** before submission. π
