ยปContributing to Vagrant During Hacktoberfest
HashiCorp has some community guidelines to ensure our public forums are a safe space for everyone. When contributing to Vagrant, please respect the same guidelines.
Getting started with contributions
There are plenty of things to work on in Vagrant, not limited to writing software. This includes:
- Fixing documentation for accuracy
- Fixing documentation for grammar and punctuation
- Finding bugs and submitting detailed issues
- Fixing or adding plugins
- Squashing bugs!
When looking through the Vagrant issue tracker
for a good first issue, it may be useful to filter by tags. For example, the
needs-community-help,
needs-repro, or
good-first-issue
tags.
Once you have found a good issue, you might want to get a development installation working. Follow the instructions for installing from source in order to setup a development environment.
