Open line 15 of README.md and inspect the SonarQube badge URL. Replace the malformed percent escape with the specified encoding for the colon, then verify that the badge link targets the io.zold:java-api SonarCloud dashboard.

Description

bug good first issue

Line 15 of README.md carries a SonarQube badge link pointing at https://sonarcloud.io/dashboard?id=io.zold%3java-api. The %3 sequence is an incomplete percent-encoding; URL parsers either read it as the character ; or pass the literal %3 through, so the resulting id parameter never equals the SonarCloud project key io.zold:java-api. Clicking the badge therefore lands on an empty SonarCloud page rather than the project dashboard.

The correct encoding for : is %3A. Replace id=io.zold%3java-api with id=io.zold%3Ajava-api on line 15 of README.md.
