Frequently Asked Questions

Start by looking for issues tagged with good-first-issue or beginner-friendly. Read our contribution guidelines, set up your development environment, and don't hesitate to ask questions in our community channels. We recommend starting with documentation improvements or small bug fixes.

All our repositories use standardized labels. Key labels include:

  • good-first-issue - Perfect for new contributors
  • bug - Something isn't working
  • enhancement - New feature or request
  • documentation - Improvements to docs
  • help-wanted - Extra attention needed

While most contributions are volunteer-based, we do offer:

  • Bounties for specific complex issues
  • Paid internship opportunities for students
  • Contract work for specialized projects
  • Referral bonuses for bringing in new team members

Exceptional contributors may be invited to join our core team in paid positions.

Admin access is granted based on consistent quality contributions, trust, and demonstrated responsibility. Typically, after 6+ months of active contribution with multiple significant PRs merged, you can request maintainer status. This comes with additional responsibilities for code review and project maintenance.

We're a globally distributed team spanning multiple timezones (UTC-8 to UTC+5:30). Core collaboration hours are typically 9 AM - 12 PM UTC to accommodate most regions. All meetings are scheduled with timezone differences in mind and recordings are provided for those who can't attend live.

We value all contributions through:

  • Monthly contributor highlights on our website
  • Digital badges and recognition in our community
  • Swag packages for significant contributions
  • Conference speaking opportunities
