## What it is
HolyTips is a curated collection of notes, checklists, and writeups on bug bounty hunting and web application security. It serves as a reference resource for penetration testers and bug bounty hunters rather than a runnable tool.

## Use cases
- learn bug bounty hunting from notes and writeups
- find web application security checklists
- study API security testing tips
- prepare for penetration testing engagements
- read bug bounty writeups for methodology ideas

## When to choose
- you want curated notes and checklists for web app pentesting
- you are starting in bug bounty hunting and need structured guidance
- you want reference writeups on API and web security

## When to avoid
- you need an executable scanning or testing tool
- you want up-to-date content - the repo has not been updated since 2021
- you need interactive training or labs rather than static notes

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: security, documentation
- domain: security, web-development, tutorials
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: bug-bounty, web-application-security, pentesting, checklists, writeups, api-security
