What's the best way to find, join projects and contribute on GitHub? #22873
-
Hello GitHub Community, I’ve been on a user GitHub and other repos for years, but never really explored the Community. So I guess I’m largely a GitHub ‘Newbie’ in a lot of ways. I’m interested in getting involved in some new projects. I’ve got lots of skills in data and coding and also I’m a Program Manager by trade. What’s the best way to see where my skills could be put to work and help out on some projects? I also don’t know how to “contribute” effectively. Any advice/links to reading would be appreciated. |
