What is Contributor Day? 

Contributor Day is dedicated to creating an opportunity for WordPress users to come together and contribute to the open source WordPress project. WordPress relies on people like you pitching in to exist (and thrive!) – and you can make a difference, even in just one day. Whether this is your first time contributing or are a veteran, we hope that you’ll continue to support the project as part of Contributor Day, and beyond!

Contributor Day is a fun event giving you a chance to participate in activities such as translating, writing documentation, bug fixing, testing and so much more! 

If this is your first time contributing, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered – keep reading so you’re prepared to make the most of the day! Contributor Day offers you an opportunity to learn how to contribute to WordPress, sharpen your skills by collaborating with other members of the community, get to know us a little more, and just have an all around great time. So it’s a day of fun and connection but you might still be asking yourself…
