Bug Description

Description
The CONTRIBUTING.md file describes how new contributors should set up their environment, but
it currently lacks a simple example of how to install dependencies and start the development
server locally.

Expected Behavior
The CONTRIBUTING.md file should include a fully working example, such as:

bash
git clone https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/hoppscotch.git
cd hoppscotch
npm install
npm run dev

Deployment Type

Hoppscotch Cloud

Version

No response

Hi! I’d like to work on this issue.
I can add a clear working setup example in CONTRIBUTING.md for new contributors.
Please let me know if there are any specific guidelines I should follow.
