When creating or managing a GitHub repository, it is often beneficial to have a .github directory that contains essential files and settings for various GitHub features. However, not all repositories may have a dedicated .github directory in their project structure. That's where this repository comes into play.

The .github repository acts as a fallback option, providing a standardized structure and necessary files that can be easily incorporated into repositories that lack their own .github directory. It ensures consistency and facilitates the adoption of best practices across multiple projects.

This repository offers the following features:

• Standardized .github structure: It includes the necessary files and directories commonly found in a .github directory.
• Essential files: The repository contains commonly used files such as README.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md, LICENSE, etc.
• Easy integration: Developers can easily incorporate the .github structure and files into their projects by cloning or copying the relevant files from this repository.
• Customization: Users can modify the files and structure according to their project requirements while still benefiting from the initial template.

The repository follows a standardized structure for the .github directory:
