Join our mailing list to stay up-to-date on what's happening in the community.
Ways to make an impact in SEPTEMBER
Below are featured opportunities for this month. This wiki has the full list of contribution opportunities.
One and Done (15-minute tasks)
Don't have much time but want to do something to help Marketplace? Pick a simple task below:
- App localization review (Free Transifex account required): Review 100% of all strings in your local language for any app that's listed in the Firefox App Localization project on Transifex. This month we really need reviewers of Bengali/Bengali_bd/Bengali_in apps to support the Firefox OS launches in Bangladesh and India.
- Complete any app localization where there are still some untranslated strings. Please self-report on your progress, but be sure to play fair. Some apps have much more work (more strings). If you like to work on translation, sign up here to get a Transifex account
- Review an add-on on addons.mozilla.org (2 completions)
- DONE! Fix a bug: 2 links in Support FAQ lead to MDN deleted pages
Guided Projects
Looking for a bigger challenge that requires more creativity and deeper involvement? A guided project can be fun and rewarding, and help you learn new skills:
- First-time code contributions: tinker with Marketplace code, and get some guidance too! Check out our new and improved documentation: http://marketplace.readthedocs.org/en/latest/topics/contributing.html
- Semi-guided project - develop a prototype [Push-to-device server+app ] solution
