There may be a little voice inside your head that is telling you that you're not
34-
ready to be an open source contributor; that your skills aren't nearly good
35-
enough to contribute. What could you possibly offer a project like this one?

We assure you - the little voice in your head is wrong. If you can write code at
38-
all, you can contribute code to open source. Contributing to open source
39-
projects is a fantastic way to advance one's coding skills. Writing perfect code
40-
isn't the measure of a good developer (that would disqualify all of us!); it's
41-
trying to create something, making mistakes, and learning from those
42-
mistakes. That's how we all improve, and we are happy to help others learn.

Being an open source contributor doesn't just mean writing code, either. You can
45-
help out by writing documentation, tests, or even giving feedback about the
46-
project (and yes - that includes giving feedback about the contribution
47-
process). Some of these contributions may be the most valuable to the project as
48-
a whole, because you're coming to the project with fresh eyes, so you can see
49-
the errors and assumptions that seasoned contributors have glossed over.
