What is the Best Way to Enter the Open Source Community as a Contributor?
Let's say you're a developer who is relatively new to open source. You're curious about the open source community and you want to take the leap and be involved as a contributing member. What's the best way to get started?
Share your experiences or advice with the community!
A lot of folks recommend that you focus first on just reading a ton of it. When you’re doing that you’ll find typos and opportunities to document. You can get your first couple commits with READMEs and text improvements. You might even find an opportunity to write a test for something, and that test might expose some unexpected behavior. Fix that and you are now committing code to open source projects!
