Almost everyone knows how to use .gitignore, the git file that helps in keeping sensitive files like .env out of the tracking, commit and pushing process and also unwanted folders like node_modules and all.

But do you know secrets, hardcoded credentials and API aren't easy to deal with using .gitignore file? you dont want to keep your config.js or config.go file out of the commit process, this are essential files to your project.

But you can contribute to open source even if you don't get selected for these program, you can always contribute to open source programs anytime you want.

Yeah, just wanna share to a little story about the bypass of an authentication through source code reading.
