Welcome to you all! We are very happy to see your interest in Plone.
If you're entirely new to Plone, please see Google Summer of Code for an intro to Plone and GSoC.
To get started, you will have to know how to use Plone. See A Tour of Plone – Content Editing for Plone — Plone Training 2025 documentation and you can try things out on demo.plone.org
You can contribute to Plone in many ways. Here are a few ideas, in no particular order:
- Fix bugs in code
- Fix bugs in documentation
- Add missing documentation (e.g., you can help us by pointing out and filling in documentation that newcomers like you need but are unable to find)
- Add a small feature
- Create a generally reusable Volto theme
Plone has a Python/Zope back end and a React front end that use different technologies, so, depending on your knowledge and level of comfort, you will want to pick one or the other.
If you have knowledge in deployment technologies, you could look at fixing bugs or improving our deployment instructions or processes.
