Well, I understand you are looking to help out open source projects and are wondering which ones get into.

I never really went that way as a beginner, but despite the fact I'm not a beginner anymore, it's not easy to find out how to actually help. It takes quite some time to get into a whole new source code, it's no trivial task.

Nowadays, I usually help when I rely on a project, but I'm not looking for projects to fix, there are just too many of them! :D

We develop many things that are open source at Unly (we're a French company helping students access Higher Education), but they're not so "meaningful" to others, yet. If you want to take a look, please do! I wonder how a fresh eye would understand the purpose of those projects. github.com/unlyEd
