The compiler is part of the main repo, which also includes the standard library crates and a whole bunch of supporting code. If no one is specifically mentioned as a mentor, try pinging the author or assignee on irc to see if they can mentor or recommend someone. If you're looking for issues on the Rust (or Servo) repos and want something easy-ish to start with, look for the E-easy or E-mentor labels. There is a rust-internals discuss instance for discussing the inner workings of Rust. There are also some more specific irc channels noted below. For questions about how Rust works, anything about contribution, or to find a mentor, #rust-internals is the right channel. If you haven't already, you should join #rust on moznet. Rustaceans primarily communicate via irc. If you need help with Rust itself, the docs and book are the best place to start. The old wiki has some useful information for contributors, but is a bit hard to wade through. These slides by kmc (a Rust and Servo engineer at Mozilla), given at a Rust meetup, are a great intro to contributing to Rust. It contains loads of useful info about the process of contributing. If you're interested in the Rust project itself, you should first read contributing.md. It's not all applicable to Rust, but a lot of it is and it's a good watch.

This video gives a great overview of reviewing at Mozilla (aimed at Firefox hackers, both reviewers and reviewees). Our contributing.md contains some details. IF you're new to Git and/or GitHub, I wrote a blog post on my workflow which might be useful.Īll PRs for the Rust project are reviewed. Rust and all the projects listed here use Git and GitHub for version control and to manage contributing. Likewise finding bugs and filing issues in any of the projects linked here is very much appreciated. There are links to these kind of issues too. Writing tests and documentation is how many people get started and is really useful. Writing code isn't the only way to make a meaningful contribution. There are issues on the Rust project itself, a number of supporting projects, and some projects which are large users of Rust. Most of this page is filled with links to lists of issues to help you find something to work on. I'll link to a few resources that make contributing to the Rust project easier. If you're not sure how best to do that, then I hope that this page will help. Hopefully, you'll also want to make a meaningful contribution to the community. If you're learning Rust, you've no doubt been amazed at how awesome the language is and will be keen to write more Rust code. Contributing to Rust Contributing to Rust
