If you are new to OpenMRS, spend some time to understand the OpenMRS and its usages around the world. 2. Install [OpenMRS Reference application](https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/Reference+Application+2.8.0) with modules and get familiar with[OpenMRS SDK](https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/OpenMRS+SDK). 3. Start to learn about OpenMRS architectures and [module development techniques](https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/For+Module+Developers). 4. Read [Developer Guide](https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/Developer+Guide), [Getting Started as a Developer](https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/Getting+Started+as+a+Developer), and ask others in the community if you have questions. 5. Learn about [OpenMRS Pull Request tips](https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/Pull+Request+Tips), [How to send a Good Pull Request](https://medium.com/@R.Sumangala/how-to-send-a-good-pr-to-the-openmrs-821c00a7e049) and [coding standards](https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/Java+Conventions). 6. Go through the [OpenMRS JIRA](https://issues.openmrs.org/), and start to work on some tickets. We preferred to work on #community-priority tickets [Get from [OpenMRS JIRA](https://issues.openmrs.org/issues/?jql=labels+%3D+community-priority)] 7. Help to finish the tickets which are waiting for [Ref App 2.9 release](https://issues.openmrs.org/projects/RA/issues) or [Platform releases](https://issues.openmrs.org/projects/PLAT/issues/PLAT-30?filter=allopenissues). 8. Be active on OpenMRS talk forum, and help others to solve their issues regarding developments, testings, and deployments. 9. Go through the past projects, and start to contribute those projects 1.
