- Read projects' contribution guidelines (usually on the
CONTRIBUTING.md
file at the root or inside the.github
folder). - Contribute small and often.
- Fixing typos and adding documentation is valuable! Don't feel the need to make a PR with just code 🙂
- Sharing your experience with the project is as much a contribution as a code contribution! For example, write a blog post about how you use a certain library and what problem solves.
- If you are a maintainer of a big project, using Saved Replies can be very helpful when you find yourself repeating the same thing over and over 😅 Take a look at a GitHub's blog post.
