After I've found a project I want to help, how do I begin contributing?

Every project will have a home page full of relevant information including meeting times, group members, communication channels, and other helpful links and resources. As some projects operate differently from others, make sure to thoroughly read over their project pages to find the best means of contributing. This can include attending weekly meetings, assisting with documentation, or visiting a project's Jira board.To see the current squad list, see the Active Projects page.
