+[How to Contribute to an Open Source Project on GitHub](https://egghead.io/courses/how-to-contribute-to-an-open-source-project-on-github)
+
+To help you get familiar with our contribution process, we have a list of [good first issues](../../issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22good+first+issue%22) that contain bugs that have a relatively limited scope. This is a great place to get started.
+
+If you decide to fix an issue, please be sure to check the comment thread in case somebody is already working on a fix. If nobody is working on it at the moment, please leave a comment stating that you intend to work on it so other people don’t accidentally duplicate your effort.
+
+If somebody claims an issue but doesn’t follow up for more than two weeks, it’s fine to take it over but you should still leave a comment. **Issues won't be assigned to anyone outside the core team**.
