Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
The broken link is listed in README.md under JavaScript > Angular. Start by checking the linked tutorial and the surrounding entries, then remove the dead link or replace it with a working equivalent. Done means the README no longer directs readers to the 502 page and the updated link, if used, opens successfully.
