full time job so I'm working hard on developing my skills while
working full time in another industry. I'm comfortable with HTML,
CSS,
Bootstrap and I like to work with WordPress. I'm currently
learning
Javascript and converting from Photoshop to Gimp/Inkscape. I love
open
source and I'm trying to use 100% open source tools for my
development
work. I love Fedora and I've been using it since Fedora 21. I
tend
to
bounce between GNOME and Mate editions. I've wanted to contribute
in
some way to Fedora for a long time now but since I'm not a
software
developer I wasn't really sure what I could do or if I had the
skills
needed to contribute. I've done some basic user testing for past
releases. I'm hoping to grow and learn as a web developer while
contributing in whatever way I can. (Even if it's in a really small
way). I'm new to using Gitbub and some of the other aspects of the
backend stuff (static generators, etc.) so I'm hoping to gain some
knowledge, experience and learn some new skills.
Hi James, and welcome! Have you seen the "easyfix" tickets at
https://pagure.io/fedora-websites/issues? That can be an easy way to
get started.

Thanks for the info Matthew. I will check out that page. I'm still
feeling my way around the Fedora account system and I need to have a
good look at the Websites wiki page.
