  Help grow free, open textbooks. Most contributions add <strong>curriculum data</strong> (what exists on the
  <a href="{{ config.extra.browse_url | safe }}">catalog</a>) or publish a <strong>live chapter</strong> (readable
  lesson pages). This guide matches the repo’s <a href="https://github.com/hananoshikayomaru/openfreebooks/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md">CONTRIBUTING.md</a>.
