## Volunteers welcome! ##
87+
88+
We are always looking for volunteers, feel free to step in! It is very easy:
89+
90+
1. Fork the repository and clone it to your computer, then follow the build instructions above.
91+
2. Choose an [unassigned issue](https://github.com/commons-app/apps-android-commons/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+no%3Aassignee) that sounds interesting to you.
92+
3. Read the issue's comments to make sure you understand what is the bug, or what feature is being proposed.
93+
4. Write a "I start working on this" comment on the issue
94+
5. Write the code :-)
95+
6. Commit and push
96+
7. Go to your fork's Github webpage, select the "Pull Requests" tab and click "create a pull request", as a comment, write something like "Fix for issue #12345 crash when rotating screen", then submit the pull request.
97+
8. Within a few hours or days, a core developer will review your patch, and either merge it or suggest a few corrections.
98+
9. If you change your mind, or if it is too difficult, no problem, just write "Sorry I don't work on this anymore" on the issue, if possible including feedback (for instance what approaches failed) and ideas.
