Wow, that's just amazing. My mentor has been pushing me towards open source contributions. We recently released a chrome extension called Zikrrr which replaces your new tab with a random tasbih.

Here is the Github repo and here is the extension itself.

My first task was to fork the repo and replace Gulp with WebPack and refactor the codebase likewise. We plan on adding translations, tasbih recitation count and what not. Very simple.

Really happy for your repo and how it turned into an actual project! I'm planning on creating a browser extension for Pomodoro Technique to improve developer productivity. It will be open source.

That’s great, Muhammad. I think it’s always great to be a part of the open source community and contributing to it, as it will help you become better as well.
