# Every contribution makes a difference
|
|
|
|
Think of open-source development as free training with a visible outcome.
|
|
Exploring new technologies is easier than in commercial environments,
|
|
where development effort is more focused on immediate results.
|
|
Consider it as an analytical process that expands both the master and the
|
|
editors knowledge, including others viewing it.
|
|
|
|
We welcome contributions of any kind including pull requests, ideas, bug reports,
|
|
testing, writing documentation, tutorials and blog posts. If you help with development,
|
|
you have the opportunity to learn Docker, Go, TensorFlow and much more.
|
|
|
|
## Questions? ##
|
|
|
|
Follow us on [Twitter][twitter] and join our [developers mailing list](https://groups.google.com/a/photoprism.org/forum/#!forum/developers)
|
|
to receive regular project updates, get in contact with other contributors and discuss your ideas. Don't be afraid to ask stupid questions.
|
|
|
|
Of all the tools we tested, Twitter works best to get and give continuous feedback. Especially polls are amazing for product development.
