Problem

This repository is designed for first-time open-source contributors, but there is currently no pull request template to guide users when submitting a PR.
As a result, contributors may submit pull requests with incomplete information, making it more difficult for maintainers to review contributions efficiently.

Common information that could be missed includes:

A brief description of the changes made
GitHub username
Confirmation that contribution guidelines were followed
Confirmation that the contributor added their name in the required format
Any additional context relevant to the contribution
Why this matters
Improves the quality and consistency of pull request submissions.
Helps beginners understand what information should be included in a PR.
Reduces review effort for maintainers.
Encourages contributors to verify repository guidelines before submission.
Creates a smoother onboarding experience for first-time contributors.

Suggested Direction

Add a GitHub Pull Request Template that provides a simple structure for contributors to complete when opening a PR.

The template could include:

Summary of changes
Issue fixed[#]
Contributor checklist
How it happened
Screenshots of change (if applicable)
Additional notes section

Expected Benefit

A standardized pull request template would improve contributor experience while helping maintainers review and process submissions more efficiently.
