title: Contributing to Taskwarrior
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Help is needed in all areas of Taskwarrior development - design, coding,
|
||||
testing, support and marketing. Applicants must be friendly. Perhaps you are
|
||||
looking to help, but don\'t know where to start. You can of course [email
|
||||
us](mailto:taskwarrior-dev@googlegroups.com) but take a look at this list.
|
||||
Perhaps you have skills we are looking for, here are ways you may be able to
|
||||
help:
|
||||
|
||||
- Use Taskwarrior, become familiar with it, and make suggestions. We get great
|
||||
feedback from both new users and veteran users. New users have a fresh
|
||||
approach that we can no longer achieve, while veteran users develop clever
|
||||
and crafty ways to use the product.
|
||||
- Report bugs and odd behavior when you see it. We don\'t necessarily know
|
||||
it\'s broken, unless you tell us.
|
||||
- Suggest enhancements. We get lots of these, and it\'s great. Some really
|
||||
good ideas have been suggested and implemented. Sure, some are out of scope,
|
||||
or plain crazy, but the stream of suggestions is fascinating to think about.
|
||||
- Participate in the [bug
|
||||
tracking](https://github.com/GothenburgBitFactory/taskwarrior/issues)
|
||||
database, to help others and maybe learn something yourself.
|
||||
- Help [triage](/docs/triage) the issues list.
|
||||
- Join the IRC channel \#taskwarrior on freenode.net and help answer some
|
||||
questions.
|
||||
- Join either the
|
||||
[developer-mailinglist](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/taskwarrior-dev)
|
||||
or
|
||||
[user-mailinglist](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/taskwarrior-user)
|
||||
(or both) and participate.
|
||||
- Proofread the documentation and man pages.
|
||||
- Improve the documentation.
|
||||
- Improve the man pages.
|
||||
- Help improve the tutorials. Make your own tutorial.
|
||||
- Confirm a bug. Nothing gets fixed without confirmation.
|
||||
- Refine a bug. Provide relevant details, elaborate on the behavior.
|
||||
- Fix a bug. Send a patch. You\'ll need C++ skills for this.
|
||||
- Write a unit test. Improve an existing unit test.
|
||||
- Spread the word. Help others become more effective at managing tasks. Share
|
||||
your methodology, to inspire others.
|
||||
- Encouragement. Tell us what works for you, and what doesn\'t. It\'s all
|
||||
good.
|
||||
- Donate! Help offset costs.
|
||||
|
||||
Please remember that we need contributions from all skillsets, however small.
|
||||
Every contribution helps.
