+## Ways to contribute
+As CircuitPython grows, there are more and more ways to contribute. Here are some ideas:
+
+* Build a project with CircuitPython and share how to do it online.
+* Test the latest libraries and CircuitPython versions with your projects and file issues for any bugs you find.
+* Contribute Python code to CircuitPython libraries that support new devices or features of an existing device.
+* Contribute C code to CircuitPython which fixes an open issue or adds a new feature.
