๐ธ๐งโ๐ป If you have some code you want to contribute, either directly submit a pull request or create an issue first, so then we can discuss it and/or I can assign the issue to you.
Hacktoberfest is an event on GitHub or GitLab that encourages everyone to participate in open-source software development. To complete the challenge, you need to make four or more pull requests during the month of October. Successful pull requests earn you digital badges and provide an opportunity to learn more about git, GitHub or GitLab, and in this project's case, web development, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.

Celebration time! ๐ Your PR has been approved! You are a genuine open sourcerer! ๐ง You have unlocked the knowledge and power to make changes throughout the open source world. What will be next?
An easy way to avoid conflicts is to add an 'upstream' for your git repo, as other PR's may be merged while you're working on your branch/fork.
git remote add upstream https://github.com/roannav/matrix-movies-website-hacktoberfest.git
You can verify that the new remote has been added by typing
git remote -v
Fetch branches and commits from the upstream repo. This will also create local branches from the remote branches, if they don't already exist.
git fetch upstream
Make sure you are on the local branch where you have been making all your code changes.
git checkout <your-branch-name>
To merge any new changes from your parent repo, simply run
git merge upstream/main
This will give you any eventual conflicts and allow you to easily solve them in your repo. It's a good idea to use it frequently in between your own commits to make sure that your repo is up to date with its parent.
