This is a submission for the 2024 Hacktoberfest Writing challenge: Maintainer Experience

Although I started my project during the last week of Hacktoberfest 2024, it was a great experience to collaborate with contributors nevertheless!

The project I'm talking about, is Cipherion.

Cipherion is a robust tool for encrypting and securely storing sensitive information using AES and multiple other encryption algorithms, featuring a command-line interface and MySQL integration.

Having built a detailed readme.md file for the project, I believe it helped contributors in clearly understanding my expectations from them, and the guidelines they should abide with.

I'm thankful to all contributors who've helped me out with my project, and in return, merging their PRs and getting them a step ahead towards their journey of completion of Hacktoberfest 2024, really made me glad.

I'm looking forward to participate in Hacktoberfest 2025 next year, and would like to encourage all readers to do the same. Cheers!
