Hey!👋 I am Christina, a Developer Advocate at Forem who focuses on the open source community.
As I continue to work with the community in our open source project, I would love to understand any pain points or successes you have had while trying to contribute to an open source project.

Note: You do not need to name the specific project. If you have tried to contribute to DEV/Forem and want to give specifics that is fine!

Have you tried contributing to open source before?

Were you unsuccessful?

• If so, what prevented you from contributing?

• Did you encounter any unusual roadblocks?

• What could the project maintainers have done better to help you?

• Did you feel like the documentation was hard to follow?

Were you successful?

• If so, what do you think helped you succeed in contributing to the project?

• What advice would you give to someone else trying to contribute to open source.

• Is there anything you would do differently?
