# Contributing

Any open source product is only as good as the community behind it. You can participate by sharing 
code, ideas, or simply helping others. No matter what your skill level is, every contribution counts.

See our [high level overview on silverstripe.org](http://silverstripe.org/contributing-to-silverstripe) on how you can help out.

Or, for more detailed guidance, read one of the following pages:

 * [Sharing your **opinion** and raising **issues**](issues)
 * [Providing **code**, whether it's creating a feature or fixing a bug](code)
 * [Writing and translating **documentation**](documentation)
 * [**Translating** user-interface elements](translation)
Broke up contributing docs into 4 sections and unified code contribtion guide. The guidelines for contributing code were scattered across a section of contributing.md and collaboration-on-git.md. I've updated this to have separate contributing/code.md page with all the content in a single cohesive page. We also have contributing/documentation.md, contributing/issues.md and contributing/translation.md. 2012-10-09 01:32:22 +02:00			`# Contributing`
