Welcome to the community! I'll be honest with you, because it'll save you a lot of frustration: an empty repo won't attract contributors. People contribute to projects that already have momentum — a clear README, working code, and issues to pick up. Posting "please contribute to my repo" into the void almost never works.

Here's a path that actually does:

1. Build something small yourself first. A to-do app, a JS utility, a small API client — anything that works and has a README explaining what it does and how to run it. That's your foundation.
2. Then contribute to existing projects. The real skill in open source isn't starting repos, it's the workflow: forking, branching, opening a PR, responding to review. You learn that by contributing. Search GitHub issues with is:open label:"good first issue" — filter by language, e.g. language:javascript, to match your stack.
3. Start with tiny PRs. Fixing a typo in docs or a small bug is a legitimate first contribution. Maintainers remember helpful first-timers.

Once you have a repo with real code plus a merged PR or two in other projects, inviting collaborators becomes ten times easier — people join momentum, not empty folders. Good luck!
