### **Working on an issue** | ||

For each issue you address, create a new branch. Working on topic branches ensures that your main branch(named `master`)remains untouched and makes it easier to synchronize your fork with the main project. |

@awlFCCamp I recommended a few changes. GitHub used to default to naming branches 'master', but switched to 'main'. Newer repos (like ours) use 'main'. Other than that, this looks great! Thanks for working on it 😄 |
@chelseybeck I made changes. Please take a look at it, and make any suggestions for revision. Thank you. |

Added a contributing markdown file to provide clear instructions for new contributors. Added instructions for making contributions to the repo: forking repo, cloning repo, creating a new branch, adding committing, pushing changes, and creating a pull request.
