🚀 Handy Tips for Developers Contributing to the Project

Before you start

• If you come across an issue labeled with [Feature Request] and are interested in contributing to it, please leave a comment on the issue to confirm its objectives and proposed solution before starting to write code.
• If you have your own ideas or features to implement, first create a [Feature Request] issue, clearly outlining the background, goals, and proposed solution before beginning development. This process helps avoid duplicating work or proposing solutions that may not align with the community's expectations.
• If you simply find a bug that needs fixing, you can directly make the changes and submit a PR.
