Solution
When taking a look at the source we find the following comment:
<!-- This is an odd encoded thing right? YWR2ZW50X29mX2N0Zl9pc19oZXJl -->
If we then use base64 to decode this string we get advent_of_ctf_is_here.
> echo "YWR2ZW50X29mX2N0Zl9pc19oZXJl" | base64 -d
advent_of_ctf_is_here
We can then enter this string on the challenge website after which it will give us the flag: NOVI{L3T_7H3_M0NTH_0F_FUN_START}.
This flag can then be submitted for the challenge.
