How to start contributing?

• If you are new to a project (as to a company), you have a priceless gift. You can see more clearly than people who are already there. You might be in a perfect position to challenge 'received wisdom.' 💡
• If you care about a project, then you are in the best position to make it better.
• Contributing to open source is a phenomenal way to grow.
