How to create a pull request without coding?

 
Step 1: Navigate to the repository on GitHub
 

Access the GitHub repository you want to contribute to by opening its URL in your web browser. If you do not have write access, fork the repository first.

• Click the Fork button in the top-right corner to create your own copy.
• Wait for GitHub to finish forking; you’ll be redirected to your forked version.

 
Step 2: Open the file you wish to edit
 

Browse the repository files and locate the file (for example, README.md) you want to update.

• Click the file name to view its contents.
• Press the pencil icon (✏️) in the top-right area of the file view to enter the in-browser editor.

 
Step 3: Make your changes in the web editor
 

Edit the file directly in the GitHub interface. You can add text, fix typos, or insert new sections.

## New Section

Describe your change or add information here.

• Use the preview tab to verify how your edits look.
• Ensure your formatting follows the project’s style guidelines.

 
Step 4: Commit your changes to a new branch
 

Scroll down to the “Commit changes” section below the editor.

• Enter a concise Commit message describing your change.
• Optionally add a longer description in the text area below the commit message.
• Select Create a new branch for this commit and start a pull request.
• Give the new branch a meaningful name, such as update-readme.
• Click Propose changes.

 
Step 5: Review the proposed pull request
 

GitHub automatically takes you to the pull request creation page.

• Verify the base repository and branch you want to merge into (often main or master).
• Confirm your head repository and the new branch you created.
• Check the list of file changes to ensure everything looks correct.

 
Step 6: Fill out pull request details
 

Provide context so repository maintainers understand your changes.

• Enter a clear Title summarizing your pull request.
• Use the description field to explain what you changed and why.
• Add any relevant issue numbers by typing # and the issue number.

 
Step 7: Create the pull request
 

Once you’re satisfied with the title and description:

• Click the green Create pull request button.
• Wait for the pull request page to load, then optionally assign reviewers or labels.
• Follow up on any comments or requested changes from repository maintainers.

Congratulations—you’ve successfully created a pull request on GitHub without writing any code!
