- Project Admin in Clone-IT

The idea behind this project is to learn how different websites are made by directly cloning them using the same layout and design. New contributors can add more websites to the list and suggest new features to the existing ones. Also, there is scope to introduce new features to websites and thus create an upgraded version of their clone.
