As part of WordCamp Cape Town 2014 we will be holding Cape Town’s very first WordPress Contributor Day on Friday\u00a024\u00a0October, so stick around after the conference and see how you can make a real difference to WordPress.<\/p>\n
We are limited to 50 spots and you can sign up for Contributor Day using this form<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Whether you’re a budding developer, a pixel-perfect designer, or just like helping out, we’re always looking for people to help make WordPress even better. It really doesn’t matter what your skill level with WordPress is, and you don’t need to be a developer or coder to be involved. There will be plenty of people on hand to help you get started and there are a number of areas where you can make a difference.<\/p>\n You can write code, fix bugs, debate decisions, and help with WordPress development. The UI group is focused on the designing and developing the user interface. It\u2019s a home for designers and UXers alike.<\/li>\n Make sure that WordPress core and all of WordPress\u2019 resources are accessible. Help with the iOS, Android, Windows, and Blackberry apps. They need designers, UX experts, and testers to give users a smooth experience on every device.<\/li>\n Answering a question in the support forums or IRC is one of the easiest ways to start contributing. Everyone knows the answer to something! You may need to have access to a test WordPress site (to be able to reproduce problems people mention).<\/li>\n WordPress is used all over the world and in many different languages. If you\u2019re a polyglot, contribute by translating WordPress into your own language.<\/li>\n Reviewing Themes sharpens your own Theme development skills. You can help out and join the discussion on the blog. Helping people help themselves when they get stuck.<\/li>\n Working to support events, to create outreach and training programs, and generally support the community.<\/li>\n The Meta team makes WordPress.org, provides support, and builds tools for use by all the contributor groups.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n For more information on all these areas go to http:\/\/make.wordpress.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n Contributor Day will be held at the\u00a0Daddy.O<\/a>\u00a0workspace in Woodstock.<\/p>\n
