@tusharsingla22222-source

Description

Describe the bug

The "Join Slack" button is currently non-functional and returns a 404 error when clicked.

Actual Behavior

Clicking the button leads to a 404 "Page Not Found" error.

Possible Cause

The Slack invite link may be expired, outdated, or incorrectly configured.

Suggested Fix

Update the button with a current/valid Slack invite link
Consider using a non-expiring Slack invite link
Verify the link is correctly configured in the codebase

Additional Context

This issue prevents new contributors from joining the community Slack workspace, which may reduce community engagement. The button is prominently displayed on the Community page with the text "Join our Slack to ask questions, get feedback on your projects, and connect with +5000 practitioners and experts."

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Navigate to the Community page (json-schema.org/community or the Community section
  2. Click on the blue "Join Slack" button in the "Join the JSON Schema Slack workspace!" section
  3. Observe the 404 "Page Not Found!" error with message "The page you were looking for doesn't exist."

Expected Behavior

The button should redirect users to the project's Slack workspace invitation page or a valid Slack invite link.
