## Features
- Takes either a username or email address as input.
- Generates random data to simulate a password reset request.
- Sends a POST request to Instagram’s API to initiate the password reset process.
- Outputs response from Instagram's API.
## Requirements

- **Node.js**: This script requires Node.js to run. If you don't have Node.js installed, you can download it from [here](https://nodejs.org/).
- **Required npm packages**:
- `node-fetch`: Used for making HTTP requests.
- `chalk`: Used for colored terminal output.
- `crypto`: Built-in Node.js library to generate random UUIDs and strings.
- `readline`: Built-in Node.js library to handle user input.
To install the required dependencies, run:
