We believe getting developers to fix super-easy issues removes the barrier for future contributions.</p> <p>This is why <a href="https://firstissues.dev/">https://firstissues.dev/</a> exists. While we are building the MVP, we are on the look out for open source projects that are actively maintained and have atleast 3 good first issues.</p> <p>If you are open source maintainer and looking for contributors, please share your Github repository to get featured on the app.</p> opensource webdev beginners javascript Aadesh Kulkarni Sat, 08 Jun 2024 11:59:17 +0000 https://dev.to/aadesh_kulkarni_ff9fad10b/beginner-101-how-to-contribute-to-open-source-projects-javascript-1gkf https://dev.to/aadesh_kulkarni_ff9fad10b/beginner-101-how-to-contribute-to-open-source-projects-javascript-1gkf <p>Here is an open source project which is beginner friendly.</p> <p><strong>App:</strong> <a href="https://figuringout.life">https://figuringout.life</a><br> <strong>Github:</strong> <a href="https://github.com/aadeshkulkarni/medium-app">https://github.com/aadeshkulkarni/medium-app</a></p> <p><a href="https://media.dev.to/cdn-cgi/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Flvq0citqae77xluyb58o.jpeg" class="article-body-image-wrapper"><img src="https://media.dev.to/cdn-cgi/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Flvq0citqae77xluyb58o.jpeg" alt="Image description" width="800" height="457"></a></p> <p><strong>How to get started ?</strong></p> <ul> <li>Head over to Github &gt; Go through Readme.MD and Contributing.md files</li> <li>Then, Github &gt; Issues section</li> <li>Filter issues by "Good first issue" label</li> <li>Pick something that is easy initially, request for assignment by commenting your approach on how you intend to solve it.</li> <li>Fork the repo, create a feature branch, raise a pull request.</li> <li>Once your PR is merged, you're officially a contributor to the project.
