@dkayiwa I received responses from when I submitted that form but, I’m looking into contributing as fast as possible The biggest I can help is with some documentation while I get my feet wet understand how openmrs works. I already started helping translating for the Spanish language.
Thank you so much @chagara!
Yes helping with documentation is one of the awesome ways you can contribute! And there are many others like testing, organising events, project infrastructure & IT support, guiding others looking for information on the wiki, etc. So you do not have to be a developer in order to contribute. And for developers, you do not have to be an expert. Something as simple as a spelling mistake correction is still regarded as a worthwhile contribution! Never forget that, every little way you contribute, will make this a better world as it results into the saving of even more lives!
To everyone, you are warmly welcome to ask anything, however simple or small, that you need to get started!
awesome how can I get started in doing documentation as a starting point? after that I’m willing to do more.
@chagara it is very exciting to get you onboard!
Can you start by taking at look at this: https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/projects/Developer+and+Implementer+Documentation+Improvements
And this: http://wsmoak.net/2014/11/30/openmrs-getting-started-doc-review.html
@dkayiwa I looked at those links but, how do I start getting access to confluence, jira and update documentation? I can start with drafts and have you guys approve. I know some of the docs I had read have not been updated in a couple of years and I’m willing to start there.
I can grant you access @chagara
awesome
You have access now.
thank you for helping
No problem.
