I have always wanted to find projects that I can contribute to their documentation, but I don't know how to find them/I have never found them.
The ones I see always require coding contributions.
How can I go about this?

Oooh good question @dumebii! :) I definitely recommend doing the following:

  1. Look through the Readme file and contributing guides of projects and check for things like typos, and missing information (e.g. Code of Conduct, no license)
  2. Check to see if a product's tutorial is missing important steps(I suggest contributing to the project first) or has outdated information If you want to work on projects that are docs-centric, I mentioned a few of them here in my FreeCodeCamp article.
