Get started quickly. We have some tickets marked as good first bugs for new contributors. There’s more on our reports page, like patches needing testing.
We also have a detailed handbook for contributors, complete with tutorials.
Weekly meetings
We use Slack for real-time communication. As contributors live all over the world, there are discussions happening at all hours of the day.
We have a project meeting every Wednesday at 20:00 UTC in the #core channel on Slack. (Find out more about Slack.)
You can find meeting agendas on this blog. You’re welcome to join us or listen in.

Many contributors help maintain one or more components. These maintainers are vital to keeping WordPress development running as smoothly as possible. They triage new tickets, look after existing ones, spearhead or mentor tasks, pitch new ideas, curate roadmaps, and provide feedback to other contributors. Longtime maintainers with a deep understanding of particular areas of core are always seeking to mentor others to impart their knowledge.
