Most projects have a special page with instructions for beginners. Generally, all instructions are similar and contain several steps: - subscribe to the mailing list for developers; - preview of the coding standart; - familiar with the procedure for sending patches to review; - contribute :) ; In my opinion the best way to contribute is to add that functionality, which does not get to you personally. As an example, you can see the page of GNOME for beginners https://live.gnome.org/GnomeLove https://live.gnome.org/GnomeLove .
