Ask HN: What are some cool Open Source projects that could use a hand?

9 points by zaay 13 years ago · 9 comments · 1 min read


I want to help on any kind of Open Source projects that are innovative and have to much to do, but not enough people. I've never contributed to any Open Source projects, but this community has given me so much that I need to give something back! Please, suggest me where to start.

UPDATE: My skills:

- PHP; OOP

- mySQL

- Advanced Javascript

- iOS

- HTMl5, CSS3

Those are a few skills that I use on daily basis and I've worked with on most of the projects. But I am also willing to learn new skills to help and expand my horizons.

Perhaps you could start by telling us

- areas you are interested in

- technology / skills you possess

- your experience level

... otherwise I'm not sure what you're expecting people to conjure up! :)

I'm also looking for open source projects that could use a hand. I have a years experience in Ruby and am interested in Clojure, going into fourth year as a CS major.

RubyJS has currently some beginner to advanced level things to get done. If you're interested in Ruby, JS this project gives you an excellent understanding of both.

I've seen several of these posts... is there a cross project website that connects developers to open source projects?
