+## Project search and contribution
+
+At first, I didn’t know what project to choose or how to start. I decided to focus on my hobbies.
+
+I initially looked for an app related to my interests, but it was challenging. Then, I thought about whether I’d used any open-source applications before, and I remembered using "OpenComics," an app for reading manga and manhwa. I checked the GitHub repository and saw it was still very active.
+
+To begin, I looked at the "Issues" section to see if I could help with any tasks. There were many issues, so I wasn’t sure what to pick. I decided to build and run the project locally, and I noticed that the app wasn’t fully translated. I started working on this by submitting a small pull request first to test the owner’s responsiveness. When it was accepted in less than 24 hours, I decided to continue with a much larger pull request. This second pull request was also accepted in under 24 hours, and I ended up translating over 200 words, bringing the app’s translation to 80%.
+
+## Project information
+
+OpenComic is an open-source app for reading manga, manhwa, and comics in various file formats. It offers options like zoom, layout adjustments, and bookmarks for desktop reading.

+
+## Conclusion
+
+This was my first time contributing to an open-source project. I didn’t expect it to be so easy and quick!
+Before this contribution, I didn’t realize how simple it was to get involved in open-source projects. I always thought contributions would be complicated, but that wasn’t the case at all. I’m happy to know I could contribute to a project that is active and widely used.
