Hi, everyone! I absolutely love this idea.

Gatsby is always looking for new contributors. We have lots of issues that might make good first contributions, and lots more that need help.

We’re extremely dedicated to making open source welcoming and inclusive, with a focus on bringing new contributors into open source. To that end, we have a standing offer to do 1-hour pair programming sessions with the core maintainers to help you get started.

If you're interested, you can reach out to me directly or check out our “How to Contribute” docs.

We'd love to have you in our community! 💪💜

Hi Jason, haven't heard of Gatsby before but on first look I think is a pretty cool project.
Also quite appropriate that is a site generator for React as that is the technology I'm currently using at work :3
Let me know how can I help!

Hey, Juan! Probably the easiest way to get started would be to try out our tutorial to get a feel for how Gatsby works, and then dive into the issues I picked in the original post and/or sign up for pair programming. Let me know if you have any questions!
