🌱 DeepSeeds – First Contribution Playground

“From Seed to Sequoia”

Welcome, DeepSeed!
This repository is a safe place to practise the complete fork → clone → branch → pull-request workflow you will use in every open-source project.

---

🎯 Your Mission (5 min)

1. Fork this repo.
2. Clone your fork.
3. Create a branch called add-<your-first-name> (e.g. add-gita).
4. In the students/ folder, create a file named exactly <your-first-name>.py (e.g. gita.py).
5. Inside that file place one line:

   print("At the end of the Ultimate GenAI Course Bamenda 2025, I expect to <write your expectation here!>")

6. Commit, push, and open a Pull Request (PR) back to this repo.

That’s it—you will have made your first open-source contribution! 🎉
