Submit your project

1. Fork this repository.

2. Clone your fork and create a new branch:

   git clone https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/Hacktoberfest26-HackDay.git
   cd Hacktoberfest26-HackDay
   git checkout -b submission/your-team-name

3. Inside submissions, create a folder named after your team. Use lowercase letters and hyphens, for example:

   submissions/
   └── team-code-crafters/
       ├── README.md
       ├── src/
       └── ...your project files
   

4. Put your complete project inside that folder. Include a README.md with:

   • Team name and member names
   • The problem you chose
   • Your solution
   • Technologies used
   • Clear setup and run instructions
   • A demo link or screenshots, if available

   You can copy the team README template to get started.

5. Commit and push your work:

   git add submissions/your-team-name
   git commit -m "Add submission from your-team-name"
   git push origin submission/your-team-name

6. Open a Pull Request from your fork to this repository's main branch. Complete the Pull Request template and submit it.

Submission rules

• Add or edit files only inside your own team folder.
• Submit one folder and one Pull Request per team.
• Make sure the project can be run using the instructions in your team README.
• Do not commit passwords, API keys, .env files, personal data, or generated dependency folders such as node_modules.
• Be respectful of other teams' work and use only content you have permission to share.
