First of all, thanks for considering to contribute to Eclipse Apoapsis. We really appreciate the time and effort you want to spend helping to improve things around here.
In order to get you started as fast as possible we need to go through some organizational issues first, though.
Before your contribution can be accepted by the project team contributors must electronically sign the Eclipse Contributor Agreement (ECA).
Commits that are provided by non-committers must have a Signed-off-by field in the footer indicating that the author is aware of the terms by which the contribution has been provided to the project. The non-committer must additionally have an Eclipse Foundation account and must have a signed Eclipse Contributor Agreement (ECA) on file.
For more information, please see the Eclipse Committer Handbook: https://www.eclipse.org/projects/handbook/#resources-commit

. -
Squash multiple commits that are related to each other semantically into a single one.

Make sure you use the

Please adjust the comment character to the specific file format.
Note: Adding a Copyright header intereferes with the way Docusaurus determines the default title of the page. To set a custom title, use the page metadata functionality with the syntax
---
title: [page-title]

at the top of the file.
