Drupal is an open-source project reliant on community contributions (from organisations and individuals) to keep it moving forward and improving. A contribution event is a get-together for collaborative work on a project. It’s a focused day of progress, where we achieve tangible results, expertise is recognised and acknowledged, and developers can mentor one another.
Contributions to a project can include organising events, designing a user interface, translating text, writing documentation, reviewing other contributions, finding or verifying bugs and submitting reports, or writing code among many, many tasks. Your participation also helps to build your contribution levels for the Certified Partner Program.
There's no pressure to complete lines and lines of code on the day. We want this to be a positive experience for everyone.
Everyone is welcome to contribute on Contribution Day, regardless of technical background. Contribution can take many forms, from coding to issue triaging. Check out the contributor tasks to discover the ways you can get involved.
Communication during Contribution Day will primarily occur through the #contribute channel in Drupal Slack, with dedicated threads for streamlined discussions.
Follow these instructions on how to join the Drupal community in Slack.
When it comes to setting up a local development environment for working on Drupal, you have options. For local development environment setup, our pick is Docker Compose. Follow the instructions for installing Docker Compose on OSX, Windows and Linux.
If you don't already have a local development environment for Drupal contribution, you can set up a starter project using this: composer create-project mstrelan/drupal-contrib
See the README.md for more details.
If you're more familiar with DDEV, we recommend you look at DDEV Drupal Contrib.
If you experience any issues, join us on Slack beforehand, and we'll happily answer your questions.
The Contribution Day adheres to the DrupalCon Code of Conduct, fostering a safe and inclusive environment for all participants.
