I am a college student with experience in JavaScript and React, and I’m eager to start contributing to open-source projects. I’ve explored resources for beginners, but many of the projects I’ve found on GitHub under “good first issue” or “beginner-friendly” labels seem inactive or too advanced.
Specifically, I’m looking for:
Recommendations for active open-source projects focused on JavaScript and React that welcome beginner contributions.
Best practices for approaching maintainers and submitting my first pull request.
I would greatly appreciate any advice or links to resources that provide detailed steps on contributing to web development projects.
