Freecodecamp: Minor grammar mistake in CSS Grid: Create Flexible Layouts Using auto-fill

[dicoderr]

Describe your problem and - if possible - how to reproduce it

The first sentence says: "The repeat function comes with a option called auto-fill." The article "a" is incorrect. Should be "an option".

Thank you! The contributor's guide is quite long. Also, I guess Egghead's course about contributing to an open source project is worth watching. Hope it won't take much time :-)

@dicoderr Are you addressing this fix, or is it up for grabs?

[dicoderr]

@Ashera138 "up for grabs".

I am fixing the typo right now, is that ok?

[dicoderr]

@alpkoseoglu OK.

I'm struggling with git, so don't feel like you have to wait on me haha. @alpkoseoglu

[alpkoseoglu]

I failed so bad and stop trying, I think you can do it ! @Ashera138

So from what I can tell (bear with me - I'm very new to this), is that the file that this grammar mistake is in (freeCodeCamp/node_modules/@freecodecamp/curriculum/dist/challenges/01-responsive-web-design/css-grid.json) is generated or added after running npm install in git. I can obviously just go in this file, edit the change, and save it, but here's the problem I'm seeing:

That css-grid.json file is not in my git repo (since it was added after running that command), and even if it was, if it's something that's generated, you would need to change whatever creates that file upstream. That's beyond me.

Please correct me if I'm wrong about anything. This is where I am stuck. :)

when you run npm install it will install all the things in the package.json file - included in this repos package.json file is this line - https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/freeCodeCamp/blob/staging/package.json#L49 - this (@freecodecamp/curriculum) is the freecodecamp package that holds all the information for the challenges and it gets created from this repo - https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/curriculum - so to fix the typo you need to change in that repository - there's also a link to the exact file and line in the comment I made earlier - hopefully this helps, feel free to ask any more questions

Oh I see, thanks for clarifying! I'll see what I can do.
