How to join

  1. Pick an issue labelled good first issue. Ask in the issue before you start, so two people do not do the same work.
  2. Open a pull request with tests and a short note on what changed and why. Keep one idea per pull request.
  3. Review two pull requests a week. After a few months of steady review, we invite you to become a reviewer.
