How to add images to README.md on GitHub?

This is such a simple✔ thing, but I struggled a bit when I was a newbie to GitHub and Markdown. I wanted to add screenshots of the project but was stuck😥 for a long time uploading images on markdown.

There are multiple ways of adding images to the Gituhub Readme file, I am going to explain to you the easiest I feel. Let's get started 😄

1. Open your README file in your Github Repository

Open Readme file.png


2. This is the image to be uploaded to README

3. Drag and drop the image file on README editor
