Open Source contributions don't always
involve directly jumping into the code base,
fixing bugs, adding features, and enhancing
existing codes
When you write a blog post, create a video
tutorial or even a Tweet thread about a specific
programming language like Python or a
framework like React, you're contributing by
educating others and spreading awareness
