Are there any specific guidelines or standards I should follow when submitting code?

I am relatively new to Open source, and I want to know how to submit code

So it depends, open source is basically about contributing to the community, so it is dependent on the project you're contributing to
but here are few thing to keep in mind

• Get started by following the conventions of the programming language, like the naming conventions (casing, etc) and that specific language's best practices.
• Check if there is any documentation or contributing guidelines. Look for sections related to coding standards, style guides, and any specific guidelines for submitting code.

(if such guidelines are not mentioned) then,

• Take a look at the existing codebase of the project. Note the formatting, naming conventions, and overall style used in the code. This can give you a good idea of the project's coding standards.
• Use comments, comments are the best way to showcase what you've done
• Don't hesitate to ask other contributors

Hope that helps!
Happy Coding 🥳
