📝 Description
Developers are not always as careful as they should be. Sometimes, they leave behind secrets in places they assume no one will check. Your task is simple: Find the hidden flag on the main page (opens in a new tab)!
🧩 Hints
- Webpages only show what they want you to see... but the browser knows everything. Maybe it's time to Inspect a little closer?
💡 Solution
As the challenge description is pretty clear, you need to inspect the code of the main page. The flag is hidden in the HTML code, near the main logo. You can find it by inspecting the element or viewing the page source.
