Like many Open Source projects, WordPress is a community oriented tool. If you use WordPress and it’s helped you build your business or a project you’re passionate about, sooner or later you’ll want to give back. Contributor Day is one way to do that. There are many areas you can help with to make WordPress a stronger tool and available to more people. This article talks about a few of those areas open to you regardless of your level of expertise.
Contributor Day is a time set aside where WordPress users can come meet with others and work on improving our favorite CMS. They are often held in conjunction with a WordCamp. Any level of WordPress user is welcome and can help. Albuquerque’s WordCamp is wrapping up with a Contributor Day and we hope you’ll come.
