Hi friends,
Greetings from the hive!
I hope you're doing well. As we're all in this together I'll once more ask you to help India.
I wrote some logic that pulls metadata (name, links, etc.) from a json file for my beelog posts, such as How To Start Bug Bounty for Beginners. That way everything is consistent and I'll always have everyone's correct links listed.

Let's take this week by swarm!
