   1. Look at the issues list, find something that you can fix
   2. Or maybe there's a feature that you would like to implement. If
   that's the case, open an issue to discuss the feature.
   3. Fix the issue
   4. Submit a pull request
   5. Listen to feedback, answer questions, and discuss/apply suggested
   changes. Leave your ego at the door.
   6. Update the pull request and request for feedback
   7. Rinse, repeat until the pull request is accepted and merged in
   8. Congratulations, you have just contributed to open source

Which projects can I help ?

As a developer, I'm sure that you rely on several third party libraries and
projects. Maybe you could contribute to one of them?
