## Your first code contribution
We maintain a list of issues that are good for first-time contributors. You can find these issues by searching for the `good first issue` label in our [GitHub repository](https://github.com/HeyPuter/puter/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22good+first+issue%22). These issues are designed to be relatively easy to fix, and we're happy to help you get started.

When you open a pull request for the first time, a bot will automatically add a comment with a link to the CLA. You can sign the CLA electronically by following the link and filling out the form.
