Everybody has something to contribute:

Drupal is made possible by a very diverse group of people around the globe using a huge variety of skills including but not limited to user experience design, project management, development, planning, testing, bug reporting, performance analysis, integration, triage, event organization, marketing, session recording, photography, translations, book authoring, and the list goes on and on. Some examples:

Translators — You are good in a written language other than English? We need you!
Content Strategists — Want to work on reorganizing the documentation and improving the content quality? We need you!
Project Managers — You want to bring forward certain initiatives and know how to build a team with different expert skill sets and how to facilitate the progress? We need you!
Marketeers — You have ideas for advancing the promotion of Drupal and need a team? And you are good at sharing your strategy insights? We need you too!
And that is just for starters! If you have ideas on how to contribute, participate in our contribution opportunities.

“Sprint” vs. “contribution”
Please note that this type of events has been called “sprint” or “code sprint” in the past. For the sake of inclusivity (contributions can relate to more than code, avoid the notion of any required speed) the Drupal community decided in 2018 to speak of “contributions” instead.

About the speaker:
AmyJune Hineline from Kanopi Studios will walk us through the Drupal contribution process, including: finding an issue and triage, filing a report, making and contributing a patch, and reviewing a patch.
We will collaboratively work together to move several projects forward. Details to come with more specifics.
