Getting started as a developer contributor to OpenMRS is sometimes dependent on the project (e.g. especially in the Microfrontends project), but our general guidance for new developers is available here: Developer Guide |
Active Team-Based Projects in the OpenMRS Community
There are many ways for you to contribute to OpenMRS and help us achieve our vision of improving patient care. Each active OpenMRS-related project that is being worked upon has its own project page. Some projects are in the initial stages while others have been completed to a major extent.
The OpenMRS community has opportunities for individuals to contribute to projects independently - or as part of a "squad" working on a specific project. Whatever your interest or skills, you can join any squad - or simply help out where you see a need. Browse through each project's page to get more information about each project. If you want to know more about a project or if you want to contribute towards any aspect of it, you can write to the project's contact or search for current discussions or start a new topic on our community forum, which we call Talk.
Open Opportunities with Project Squads
Below is a list of current squads who are actively looking for contributors with a variety of skills to fill different roles.

Documenting a Project
If you are working on certain project, Project page should at least include a description of the project, the person(s) working on the project, the person(s) overseeing the project, link(s) to wiki pages or related resources, and names of any champions or interested parties. We encourage anyone involved (or interested in) a project to "watch" their project page – i.e., select Tools ? Watch Page from the wiki's menu in order to receive e-mail notifications of comments or edits.
