Introduction : Somesh Chaturvedi

[Somesh Chaturvedi]

Hi everyone,

I have been using Django in my professional as well as personal projects for the past 3 years now. I'd like to start contributing for Django now. I have gone through the following documentation along with all its sub-docs. 

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing/

I would really appreciate if someone helps me with a head start. Thanks.

Regards,

Somesh Chaturvedi

Welcome Somesh,

There's actually a mailing list dedicated to first time contributors, where you might get a bit more attention: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/django-core-mentorship

I'd suggest having a particular goal in mind where you'd like to contribute - what areas of Django do you want to see improved? Also have a look through the ticket tracker for a easy-pickings ticket to get involved in the contribution process.

Also don't forget there are many more ways to contribute to Django than just code, for example: helping a local community event, translating Django or the docs, improving the docs, writing blog posts, contributing to one of the many third party packages, or answering questions on Stack Overflow :) :)
