Problem

There's often a missing newline at the end of the files, which can cause issues with old code editors.

Possible Solution

Add the newline-action to a new github workflow

Additional information

This will up the quality of devicons, and boost productivity for both reviewers and code contributors.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Research the recommended newline action from the GitHub Marketplace. Review its documentation to understand configuration options. Create a new workflow file (e.g., .github/workflows/newline.yml) that triggers on pull requests and applies the action to all files. Test the workflow by creating a PR with a file missing a trailing newline.
