Summary

This pull request adds a Good First Issues section to the README to improve the onboarding experience for new contributors. The section provides quick access to beginner-friendly issues and outlines the basic steps for claiming and contributing to an issue.

Changes Made

  • Added a dedicated 🌱 Good First Issues section to the README.
  • Included links to Good First Issue and Help Wanted issue labels.
  • Added step-by-step instructions explaining how new contributors can claim an issue and submit a pull request.
  • Included a maintenance note encouraging contributors to check for newly opened beginner-friendly issues as the list is updated over time.

Why This Change?

Having a centralized section for beginner-friendly issues makes it easier for first-time contributors to find suitable tasks, understand the contribution workflow, and get involved with the project more quickly. This improves contributor onboarding and reduces the effort required by maintainers to guide new contributors.
